 Following example raises "ValueError: low >= high".
 It looks like it is due to overflow of "diff = hi - lo - 1" in
 RandomState.randint.

 {{{
 import numpy
 intinfo = numpy.iinfo(int)
 numpy.random.randint(-1, intinfo.max)  # raises nothing
 numpy.random.randint(intinfo.min, intinfo.max)
 ## numpy.random.randint(-2, intinfo.max)  # raises ValueError too
 }}}
