My comments in the bug:

assimulo is using StrictVersion(np.version.version).  StrictVersion does not
allow for "rc" suffixes - see
http://epydoc.sourceforge.net/stdlib/distutils.version.StrictVersion-class.html

But I think this in entirely assimulo's problem for using StrictVersion -
obviously numpy isn't following those rules.  Maybe they should or might like
to, but I don't know.  I've asked:
