What is the real goal you're trying to achieve? This monkeypatching is a bad idea: https://github.com/robbmcleod/numexpr/blob/numexpr-3.0/setup.py#L19. Both setuptools and numpy.distutils already do that, and that's already one too many. So you definitely don't want to add a third place.... You can use the -j (--parallel) flag to numpy.distutils instead, see http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-dev/user/building.html#parallel-builds Ralf
