[PYTHON MATRIX-SIG] slicing rank-1 arrays

[James Hugunin]

   From: da@maigret.cog.brown.edu (David Ascher)

   Given the following, which seems fine:

	   >>> a
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   >>> a[All,All]
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   0 1 2 3 4

   why doesn't the following work?

	   >>> b
	   0 1 2 3 4
	   >>> b[All]
	   Traceback (innermost last):
	     File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
	   AttributeError: __len__
	   >>> b[Reverse]
	   Traceback (innermost last):
	     File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
	   AttributeError: __len__

   [Using 0.33 on an SGI]

This is a bug.  I'll fix it.
