Currently it requires NumPy 1.7 due to using the copyto method (http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.copyto.html) for extracting data out of an array.
Replace it with a fallback

3bdf5f6 [Sandeep] SPARK-1428: MLlib should convert non-float64 NumPy arrays to float64 instead of complaining
The reason it wasn't working was passing a bytearray to stream.write(), which is not supported in Python 2.6 but is in 2.7. (This array came from NumPy when we converted data to send it over to Java). Now we just convert those bytearrays to strings of bytes, which preserves nonprintable characters as well.

f26c59f [Matei Zaharia] Update docs to no longer say we need Python 2.7
a84d6af [Matei Zaharia] SPARK-1421. Make MLlib work on Python 2.6
In PR https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/117, we added dense/sparse vector data model and updated KMeans to support sparse input. This PR is to replace all other `Array[Double]` usage by `Vector` in generalized linear models (GLMs) and Naive Bayes. Major changes:
1. `LabeledPoint` becomes `LabeledPoint(Double, Vector)`.
2. Methods that accept `RDD[Array[Double]]` now accept `RDD[Vector]`. We cannot support both in an elegant way because of type erasure.
3. Mark 'createModel' and 'predictPoint' protected because they are not for end users.
4. Add libSVMFile to MLContext.
5. NaiveBayes can accept arbitrary labels (introducing a breaking change to Python's `NaiveBayesModel`).
6. Gradient computation no longer creates temp vectors.
7. Column normalization and centering are removed from Lasso and Ridge because the operation will densify the data. Simple feature transformation can be done before training.
TODO:
1. ~~Use axpy when possible.~~
2. ~~Optimize Naive Bayes.~~

We've used camel case in other Spark methods so it felt reasonable to
keep using it here and make the code match Scala/Java as much as
possible. Note that parameter names matter in Python because it allows
passing optional parameters by name.
- Added a Python wrapper for Naive Bayes
- Updated the Scala Naive Bayes to match the style of our other
algorithms better and in particular make it easier to call from Java
(added builder pattern, removed default value in train method)
- Updated Python MLlib functions to not require a SparkContext; we can
get that from the RDD the user gives
- Added a toString method in LabeledPoint
- Made the Python MLlib tests run as part of run-tests as well (before
they could only be run individually through each file)
