markd c59b321927 Initial import of py-numpy 1.1.0
NumPy is a general-purpose array-processing package designed to
efficiently manipulate large multi-dimensional arrays of arbitrary
records without sacrificing too much speed for small multi-dimensional
arrays.  NumPy is built on the Numeric code base and adds features
introduced by numarray as well as an extended C-API and the ability to
create arrays of arbitrary type.

There are also basic facilities for discrete fourier transform,
basic linear algebra and random number generation.

Pkgsrc issue: if the package build happens to find a fortran it prefers
over the one pkgsrc is using it will try to use it and the wrong thing
will happen.
