Yeah... and I just tried that again, with the same results. I have no  
idea what could be going wrong. E.g. why would 'cimport numpy as np'  
not add np to the namespace on my machine whereas it does so on yours...

Also, I assume that constructs like:
         cdef int i, dim = data.dimensions[0]
are some special numpy-support syntax that's supposed to be added by  
the cimport numpy line? (Because numpy arrays don't expose a  
'dimensions' attribute to python code...) It's like for some reason on  
my machine, cython isn't building its numpy support correctly. Which  
is understandable in the light of the fact that cython can't pass the  
numpy tests on my machine either. Odd indeed. Maybe I'll try on the  
cython list, since you guys seem to have demonstrated that the problem  
isn't in the bilateral code!
