Pyrex is a package to build python extensiona but with a Python flavor. See
http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/ for more info.

I see. You are having problems because pytables 0.7.2 has not a clean 64
bits implementation. See this:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=226653

Rigth now, I've solved these problems (at least all the pytables tests
passes now in 64 bits platforms) in the CVS repository, but, as I'm still
doing some API changes on the new functionality I can't recommend you to
test the new bleeding edge version.

However, I've successfully tested previous versions of pytables on SGI Irix
6.5 by using the gcc (2.95 I think) compiler, not the native one. You failed
to send me info about your system and compiler versions, but, if you are
using the native SGI compiler, you can give the gcc a try. Or wait until
pytables 0.8 will be out.

Cheers,
