Hi,
I'm trying to make an OpenBSD package on numpy-0.9.5, but it receives a malloc fault in the checktypes() self-test as it tries to free() a junk pointer. In case you are not aware, OpenBSD's malloc() implementation does a fair bit of randomisation that makes it (deliberately) sensitive to memory management errors. This problem has been worked around in NumPy SVN. It is a problem with Python that has been fixed in Python SVN as well.
You can either comment-out the test or update to latest SVN.
