     Type:  defect           |      Status:  new        
 Priority:  high             |   Milestone:  Unscheduled
Component:  numpy.distutils  |     Version:  devel      
 Keywords:                   |  
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
 Numpy calls the function distutils.sysconfig._init_posix in
 numpy/distutils/ccompiler.py.

 This function has been removed in the Python 2.7 alpha 3. Also, this call
 is no longer used within the numpy code as per Robert Kern's response in
 the thread 'distutils problem with NumPy-1.4 & Py-2.7a3 (Snow Leopard)'
