Changes (by rainwoodman):

  * version:  1.3.0 => 1.6.1


Comment:

 I am confirming this is still and issue with 1.6.1 with IPython, on python
 2.7.3

 won't seg fault:
   .clip(min=0, max=1), with ipython
   .clip(min=0), with python  (I believe there may still be corrupted data)
 will seg fault:
   .clip(min=0), with ipython.

 I made a gdb attaching to the ipython process and obtained a backtrace:
