#347: qr only works for square matrices
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  bartvde       |       Owner:  somebody
     Type:  defect        |      Status:  new     
 Priority:  normal        |   Milestone:          
Component:  numpy.linalg  |     Version:          
 Severity:  major         |    Keywords:          
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 The qr method doesn't work for non-square matrices. In addition, there is
 no unit-test for the qr-method.
 The scipy.linalg.qr method works fine.


 {{{
 In [15]: a=numpy.random.rand(6,5)
 In [16]: q,r=numpy.linalg.qr(a)
