Are you using the app engine "standard environment"? That's a very
weird Python environment that forbids the installation of all packages
that contain C code. This obviously includes numpy, and would explain
your error. They do provide a pre-installed super-ancient version of
numpy with some features removed, which might work for you if you
force-uninstall numpy. Otherwise you might need to switch to the
"flexible environment".
