 Priority:  high                                    |   Milestone:  1.6.2   
Component:  numpy.core                              |     Version:  1.6.1   
 Keywords:  numpy, ndarray, dtype, object, float64  |  
----------------------------------------------------+-----------------------
 Forward operations (+-*/) involving a numpy.ndarray of dtype=object and
 numpy.float** give a TypeError. Leftward operations do not give a
 TypeError.[[BR]]
