[Matplotlib-users] compile numpy with UCS4

[Kurt P. <pet...@ms...>]

I had to compile and install Python 2.7 on RHEL with the
--enable-unicode=USC4 to get it to work with Tkinter.  Unfortunately, I'm
now trying to install numpy, and get an error when importing it into python
"ImportError: numpy/core/multiarray.so: undefined symbol:
PyUnicodeUCS2_AsASCIIString".

Is there are way to get the two to play together nicely?  Such as
recompiling numpy with USC4 support?
