I don't know what exactly goes wrong there, but my standard recommendation
for treating shared library problems is to use my modified NumPy
distribution at

    http://starship.skyport.net/crew/hinsen/numpy.tar.gz

It handles the relation between the various dynamic libraries in a much
more portable way than the standard distribution. If you are not in a
hurry, you might also wait for the next official NumPy release, which
Paul Dubois just promised for the near future.
