The bug seems to be closed:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1108739&group_id=1369&atid=301369

I haven't played with any 64-bit machine for a while so I don't know
if the problem is still there. I'd guess you should be ok with a
recent version of Numeric.

Is it about time to move on to NumPy?
