I ran into the following issues with scipy 0.9.0b1 on Windows when building with msvc 9 and intel 11.1 compilers. Numpy is version 1.5.1, linked against MKL.
1) after patching some source files and setup scripts (see msvc9.diff attachment), "python setup.py bdist_winist" succeeds on 32- and 64-bit Python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.1. The Visual C compiler reproducibly crashes while compiling scipy\special\cephes\ndtr.c. Running the build command again (without cleaning the build directory) seems to work.
Some of that patch should end up in the tree? I'm not sure which parts, though.
The patch can not be applied as is. It is a quick hack to get scipy compiling with msvc9/ifort again and likely breaks things in other build environments. I can open tickets later.

2) the build process fails on Python 3.2b1 with the following errors:
scipy\sparse\sparsetools\csr_wrap.cxx(2451) : error C3861: 'PyCObject_Import': identifier not found scipy\sparse\sparsetools\csr_wrap.cxx(2521) : error C3861: 'PyCObject_FromVoidPtr': identifier not found scipy\sparse\sparsetools\csr_wrap.cxx(2544) : error C3861: 'PyCObject_AsVoidPtr': identifier not found
It seems that the version of SWIG used there is not compatible with Python 3.2.
Yes, see SWIG bug #3057804 "[Python] wrapper does not compile with python 3.2" <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3057804&group_id=1645&atid=101645>
3) 32-bit Python 2.6 is the only platform where scipy.test() finishes; albeit with 32 failures. Besides the Correlate complex192 and TestODR errors (http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/ticket/678) I get [clip] FAIL: Real-valued Bessel domains [clip] AssertionError: (nan, nan, nan, nan)
This indicates some issue with AMOS and ifort. What do you get from
import warnings, scipy.special as sc warnings.simplefilter('always', sc.SpecialFunctionWarning) sc.errprint(1)
0
sc.airye(-1)
__main__:1: SpecialFunctionWarning: airye:: unknown error __main__:1: SpecialFunctionWarning: airye:: unknown error (nan, nan, 0.10399738949694459, 0.59237562642279229)
It's possible that the test is too strict.
4) scipy.test() on Python 2.7 and 3.1 crashes as reported in ticket #1210<http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/ticket/1210>
This smells like something triggering a DeprecationWarning when GIL is released. If so, it should be compiler independent and reproducible on wine+mingw. Or, some PyCObject/PyCapsule issue.
5) On 64 bit platforms, scipy.test() quits at the following test
test_interpnd.TestCloughTocher2DInterpolator.test_dense ... QH6084 qhull internal error (qh_meminit): sizeof(void*) 8> sizeof(ptr_intT) 4. Change ptr_intT in mem.h to 'long long'
Should be fixed in r7013
Thanks.
