[Numpy-discussion] Issue with np.median and array subclasses in 1.8.0rc (worked with 1.7.0)

Hi, The behavior for ``np.median`` and array sub-classes has changed in 1.8.0rc, which breaks unit-handling code (such as the ``quantities`` package, or ``astropy.units``): https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/3846 This previously worked from Numpy 1.5 (at least) to Numpy 1.7. Is there a new (and better) way to override the ``np.median`` behavior? Cheers, Tom
