Comment:

 All of the Numpy functions that I mentioned above were all ufuncs that
 took two arguments. There was some code for handling errors in
 ufunc_object.c that returned Py_NotImplemented when there were two
 arguments to the function rather than raising the NotImplemented
 exception. The comment by this code said 'To allow the other argument to
 be given a chance'. I don't see how that comment makes any sense. Does
 anyone know why this is in there?

 The patch I submitted removes these lines so that the correct exception is
 raised.
