just to report something positive with my (almost;-) daily build on 64Bit:
With '0.5.0.2012' **all** tests pass on 64 Bit (apart from the well-known ndimage one).
Best, Arnd

On 32 bit there is still one failure but I cannot reproduce it on a 64 bit system. Why ?
I don't know. I looked at it a bit, but couldn't see anything obvious.
But, since you have access to both systems you are in a great position to figure out why it is failing on 32-bit systems. Insert some print-statements in the fmin_cobyla code (the calcfc function might be a good place) and compare the outputs on the two systems when you run just that test.
It would be great if you could help track it down.

Let's start with the example in test_cobyla.py function = lambda x: x[0]**2 + abs(x[1])**3 con1 = lambda x: x[0]**2 + x[1]**2 - 25 con2 = lambda x: -con1(x) I guess it is taken from a book on optimization. Is that true ? A reference would be fine. cons -- a sequence of functions that all must be >=0 (a single function if only 1 constraint) The first constraint reads x^2 + y^2 -25 \ge 0 The second constraint is -x^2-y^2+25 \ge 0 or x^2+y^2 -25 \le 0 Does that mean that we can combine both inequality constraints to one equality constraint - a circle with radius 5 and center in (x=0,y=0)?
