[Numpy-discussion] Distutils problem with g95

[James G. <jg...@ca...>]

numpy.distutils seems to have difficulties detecting the current version of the 
g95 compiler. I believe this is because the output of `g95 --version` has 
changed. The patch below seems to correct the problem (i.e. it now works with 
the latest g95) but my regexp foo is very weak so it may not be correct/optimal.
