Comment:

 This problem used to occur, we just didn't have a test to catch it.  To
 reproduce on other machines:

 {{{
 In [21]:x = N.array([1,2], dtype=('>i4'))

 In [22]:N.putmask(x, [True, False], 3)

 In [23]:x
 Out[23]:array([50331648,        2])
 }}}

 I'll remove the test for now, until I have time to fix this.
