[Numpy-discussion] crash at prompt exit after running test

[Johann Cohen-Tanugi]

hi there, I am adding this to this thread and not to the trac, because I 
am not sure whether it adds noise or a piece of info. I just downloaded 
the scipy trunk and built it, and ran nosetests on it, which bombed 
instantly....
So I tried to get into subdirs to check test scripts separately..... and 
here is one :
[cohen at jarrett tests]$ ~/.local/bin/ipython test_integrate.py
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      76         file_to_run = f.f_locals.get('__file__', None)
---> 77         assert file_to_run is not None
      78
      79     import_nose().run(argv=['',file_to_run])

AssertionError:

[cohen at jarrett tests]$ pwd

the bomb is the same, but the context seems different... I leave that to 
the experts :)
