[PYTHON MATRIX-SIG] Errors when importing the Numeric module

[Fredrik Lundh]

Just built Python 1.3 with NumericPython 0.31.

Can anyone explain the following... (ok, the first two lines are
obviously test stuff left in UserArray.py, but the exception)?

Python 1.3 (Apr  2 1996) [C]
Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
>>> import Numeric
UserArray([1,2,3], 'l')
UserArray([0.841470956802,0.909297406673,0.141120001674], 'f')
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/local/lib/python/numeric/Numeric.py", line 9, in ?
    import string, types, math
  File "/usr/local/lib/python/types.py", line 12, in ?
    if vars(__builtins__).has_key('complex'):
TypeError: vars() argument must have __dict__ attribute

When importing it again, everything works fine.

BTW, it seems as if a Matrix<->PIL interface consists of ~2 lines of
code for each direction.  Watch this space for info.
