Re: [Matplotlib-users] compile numpy with UCS4

[Michael D. <md...@st...>]

When you recompile Python in a new unicode mode, you then need to 
recompile all extensions (such as Numpy), since an extension compiled 
for one mode will not work with the other.  Annoying if you have a lot 
of extensions.

However, I don't think that UCS4 mode is required for Tkinter -- it 
could just be that the Tkinter you have compiled was compiled against a 
Python of a different unicode mode.  (RHEL builds its python packages 
with --enable-unicode=UCS4, so if you're using the RH package for 
Tkinter with a self compiled Python, that may be what you're running into.)
