This is going to be a problem:
You've installed a numpy for python 2.3 on python 2.4.3 That won't work
right.
I'm pretty sure numpy builds just fine with the universal python with
the standard:
$ python2.4 setup.py build
$ sudo python2.4 setup.py install

That should work, if you're running a PPC Mac, but I've never tried it.
Does it come with it's own numpy? it may well, and the numpy you
installed probably got put into Apple's python 2.3.5

Are you getting python 2.4 when you do that?

Ideally, you'll get the best answers from the folks that are building
SciPy for OS-X. I'm not sure who that is, but I bet you can find them on
the SciPy lists.
