[SciPy-dev] patch: writing 1x1 cell arrays in matlab

[Thouis (Ray) Jones]

Lee Kamnetsky discovered a possible bug in mio5.py.  Diff and test
case attached.

The second test is the one that fails and is addressed by this patch,
and this is the gist of it:

    cells = np.ndarray((1,1),dtype=object)
    cells[0,0]='Hello, world'
    savemat(StringIO(), {'x': cells}, format='5')
