[PYTHON MATRIX-SIG] NumPy test failing

[Brien Barton]

I installed the new NumPy 1.0b1 on an SGI system and tried to run the
test_all.py script.  It gets an error on the test that tries to verify that,
if a is an array, then array(a) returns a copy of a.  The lines from
test_items.py are:

    b = array(a)
    b[0] = 66
    a[0]
    >0
    
This test is apparently trying to verify that after the line "b = array(a)",
b and a are two different objects, but on my system they are the same.
Anyone else seeing this?
