[SciPy-dev] could anyone check nlp_3.py from updated scikits.openopt?

I updated openopt from svn to rev. 896 and installed it with python setup.py
install.

Running the nlp_3.py script raises an exception suggesting that the solver ralg
may not be installed. I'm not sure if I needed to do anything else with the
install although I don't believe I had to previously.

HTH,
Dave
