Hi Ryan.  With latest SVN of scipy, I'm able to load your matfile just 
fine.

I'm not sure what the issue was, but I did change the getsize_type 
function in mio.py to make sure that the second argument returned is 
always a character.   There was a chance it could be returned as a 
type-object.

If  you can't get the latest SVN version, let me know what version of 
numpy you are using and I can give you a couple-line edit to the mio.py 
file that should work.
