Cannot install scipy and pysal concurrently using requirements.txt

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a new virtual environment 
2. Create a requirements.txt file
numpy==1.6.1
scipy==0.10.1
pysal==1.3.0
3. pip install -r requirements.txt 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: All libraries are installed
Actual:
Downloading/unpacking pysal==1.3.0
  Downloading pysal-1.3.0.tar.gz (4.5Mb): 4.5Mb downloaded
  Running setup.py egg_info for package pysal

Cannot reproduce as reported.  Following the original poster's instructions, 
this build fails to find a numpy submodule required by scipy.  Attempted on OSX 
Lion as well as Ubuntu 12.04, with the same results.
