Based on Martin's comment and a couple of other observations
that rolling back binutils might help, I did so and was able to get
numpy 0.98 to compile and somewhat work. 

Does binutils need to be rolled back in the release?

Separately, if I type
 gdb python
 run
it just hangs and I have to separately kill python. 
Is this reproducible by others or do I need to dig deeper?
