New description:

 Apparently Numpy forgot about the existence of "x86_64" systems:
 {{{
 Python 2.7.2 (default, Feb  3 2012, 15:29:15)
 [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin
 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> from distutils.util import get_platform
 >>> get_platform()
 'macosx-10.6-x86_64'
 }}}

 The bug is in `src/numpy/distutils/system_info.py`:
 {{{
         if sys.platform=='darwin' and not os.environ.get('ATLAS',None):
             args = []
             link_args = []
             if get_platform()[-4:] == 'i386':
                 intel = 1
             else:
                 intel = 0
             if
 os.path.exists('/System/Library/Frameworks/Accelerate.framework/'):
                 if intel:
                     args.extend(['-msse3'])
                 else:
                     args.extend(['-faltivec'])
                 link_args.extend(['-Wl,-framework','-Wl,Accelerate'])
 }}}
 The above code is actually wrong in so many different ways that it should
 better be scrapped altogether.  However, I'm going for a minimal fix in
 this ticket, adding a check for "x86_64".  Let's also see what upstream
 says.
