New description:

 Valgrind warnings when running the test suite with r3374.

 Warnings pop up when running the regression test for ticket #254 and when
 running test_ma.check_testArithmetic in numpy/core/tests/test_ma.py.

 Valgrind says:

 {{{
 ==2256==
 ==2256== Use of uninitialised value of size 4
 ==2256==    at 0x4A42EDD: PyDict_Next (in /usr/lib/libpython2.4.so.1.0)
 ==2256==    by 0x45CEBC1: construct_loop (ufuncobject.c:1615)
 ==2256==    by 0x45D03A2: PyUFunc_GenericFunction (ufuncobject.c:1735)
 ==2256==    by 0x45D14CA: ufunc_generic_call (ufuncobject.c:3047)
 ==2256==    by 0x4A1B586: PyObject_Call (in /usr/lib/libpython2.4.so.1.0)
 ...
 }}}

 Tested with Valgrind 3.1.0. If any developer(s) need help in getting
 Valgrind going on their systems, I would be more than happy to lend a
 hand.
