Sorry for not responding sooner, I must have missed the mail (I spotted 
it while having another poke through the debian rc bugs list)

I'm just doing flyby investigation/fix attempts of rc bugs, I don't 
personally know fortran or have any real links with this package, 
nevertheless I will do my best to answer your questions.

The libraries are from debian packages, they appear to be built with 
gfortran but I don't know how to tell for sure

Not that I know of, where would such a file be found

2.5 (specifically 2.5.4-2)  is the default python version in the 
envionment, 2.4 (specifically 2.4.6-2.2) is also pulled in by the 
packages build-dependencies which suggests the package is trying to 
build against both.

The build environment had python-scipy 0.7.0-2 installed from the debian 
archives
The python-scipy package built from source successfully
Installing the self built python-scipy did not affect the error.
