Agreed - the changes should be put in the sources. Will do so tonight 
after work unless someone beats me to it.

I am playing a bit with fftpack, and very few modifications are needed 
for f2py to run on it. Now, I "just" have to fix the generated C code to 
  see what's going on.

P.S: is it expected that numpy cannot be built in-place correctly under 
py3k ?
