Yes. Howewer, why don't you do your own ipy_profile_sci.py? By looking
at ipythonrc-scipy it would be trivial and we could use a simple

Try running %upgrade and see what it prints, it should show you the
directories where it copies the rc files from.

I get:

[C:\ipython]|4> %upgrade

"C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\IPython\UserConfig" "c:\home\_ipython"
