[Numpy-discussion] dtype and shape for 1.6.1 seems broken?

[Robert Love]

This works under 1.5.1 and 1.6.0 but gives me errors in 1.6.1

import numpy as np

def main():

   print"numpy version: "+ np.__version__

   zdt = np.dtype([('et','i4'),('r','f8',3)])

   zdata = np.loadtxt('zdum.txt', zdt)

In 1.6.1 I get this error:

ValueError: setting an array element with a sequence.  Is this a known problem?
