Hi,
I just ran across a situation where reversing an empty array using a negative
stride populates it with a new element. I'm betting this isn't the intended
behavior.
An example code snippet is below.

>>> from Numeric import *
>>> import Numeric
>>> Numeric.__version__
'21.0'
>>> a = array(())
>>> a
zeros((0,), 'l')
>>> len(a)
0
>>> b = a[::-1]
>>> len(b)
1
>>> b
array([0])
