 Priority:  normal         |   Milestone:  2.0.0   
Component:  numpy.core     |     Version:  devel   
 Keywords:  Py3k, formats  |  
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 test_arrayprint.py fails on python3.x with

 {{{
 FAIL: Test custom format function for each element in array.

 Traceback (most recent call last):

 AssertionError:
 Items are not equal:

  DESIRED: '[0x0L 0x1L 0x2L]'
 }}}
 Apparently the hex() and oct() functions have been decided to print out a
 format without the trailing 'L' as of python3 -
 [http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-June/065946.html], so I
 suggest to define the expected result depending on the version (see
 patch).
