Hi,

with RPy 2.1.9, python 2.7.1, numpy 1.5.1, scipy 0.8.0 and R 2.12.1,
all compiled with the Intel compiler suite (11.1) including MKL, and
running on Linux (OpenSuse 11.1 if someone cares), this funny thing
happens:

>python
Python 2.7.1 (r271:86832, Nov 30 2010, 12:31:54)
[GCC Intel(R) C++ gcc 4.3 mode] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import scipy.interpolate
>>> import rpy2.robjects
>>> exit()
Segmentation fault

When only importing scipy, or rpy, there's no problem; it seems to
require this particular combination of modules to be triggered...
Also, the problem doesn't seem to occur with RPy 2.2.0 alpha 2, so
something might have been fixed in between.

We stumbled over this we because we got segfaults from python in
rather larger application, and could reduce it to the above two lines;
in the application, the segfault happens earlier while the program
runs. This segfault also went away with upgrading RPy, but we wondered
if the reason for the problem in 2.19 is understood...

Many thanks,

  Chris.
