opencv 2.4 build failure

Thanks to Alexander Kanavin's patch I can now start an opencv build on master without the x11 distro feature. However the build fails in the python module as NPY_SIZEOF_OFF_T is not defined.

I'm not enough of python guy to fix this myself. Where should I start looking?

Thanks,
