Yeah -- these Pyrex version skew issues are really getting annoying.

I'm not sure how one would add a test like that exactly. though... I
guess we could just have setup.py bomb out entirely if a new enough
version of Pyrex isn't installed? distutils is not a very good
build/configuration system, unfortunately.

The other alternative I've considered is just switching everything to
Cython, which is a more actively-developed Pyrex fork -- that might
force people to have a newer version...
