Stefan,

Maybe Travis could whip one up instantly, but I can't; I never figured 
out what is the difference between the dtypes of the ndarray that 
triggered the bug and the more common ones that don't, so I simply don't 
know how to make a test case.  I'm sure I *could* figure it out, but it 
might take quite a bit of time--and in the grand scheme of things, I 
don't think that would be time particularly well-spent.  I can't make it 
a priority.
