Could you investigate what causes this ImportError?
The 5th line in special/basic.py is 

  from Numeric import *

Can you import Numeric directly?

Please update your local SciPy CVS repository and reinstall scipy_core.
Hopefully the latest version of ppimport.py gives more information
on this failure.
