You are picking up an older version of scipy.   Do you have scipy 
installed already?  If so, we are working quickly on getting a 
replacement so that scipy can build on top of scipy_core.    For now, 
you probably need to delete your scipy installation, and re-install 
scipy_core.


Again,

Old scipy and new scipy core do not work together yet.

We are trying to fix this, but have not done so yet.
