I played around with this awhile ago and has similar issues. I don't think this add-on is working and I think they should flag it as such so people don't waste their time. One issue is Apple's Accelerate backend, which this uses, does not appear to be supported in numpy anymore. I think to get this working Openblas as an Accelerate alternative would need to be ported. This is a problem because Openblas is written in Fortran and there is not a Fortran compiler for iOS (its not impossible to compile this but it is a difficult task.). However, with the fact that Apple's computers are now using the same chip as iOS devices, I am hopeful a simpler Fortran solution may be coming soon to iOS. The only other solution would be that the numpy people get the Accelerate backend working again.
Closing as we're deprecating the numpy build system provided by this project, in favour of a more comprehensive approach to support binary packages.
