 i just ran into the same problem.

 during compilation, the setup.py is somehow making the
 /usr/include/pythonXX appear first before the local -IInclude, since
 thee were some small API changes, the compiler halts on errors.

 if you copy the files in the Include directory into your Python include
 directory, all will be well.

 (well, actually, there is a name collision between the gamma function
 in numpy and a declaration of gamma in /usr/include/mathcalls.h but
 that may be just my installation.
