Yes, I did with my last attempts (in earlier attempts I did pull earlier versions from github but only before I realized I had to upgrade cython altogether). So that's probably it; sorry, I had no understanding of the workings of pip.
I'll retry with cython stable and numpy from source, and only post again if I find something surprising in order to reduce further noise.
