The fix in question is available in the current numpy-1.6.1 package. Do the fails persist ?

[Comment 4 Kamen Dokov 2011-09-09 14:23:26 UTC]

Well I did 'eselect python set python3.2' and recompiled numpy.
It builds and installs fine!

Is it safe now to set as default python instance 3.2 ?

This is what I did. So far no problems :)

This bug was fixed in dev-python/numpy-1.6.1 by upstream.
