[Numpy-discussion] Oddity with numpy.int64 integer division

[Christian Marquardt]

Restore the invariant, and follow python.

This

   >>> -5 // 6
   -1

and

   >>> array([-5])[0] // 6
   0

simply doesn't make sense - in any language, you would expect that
all basic operators provide you with the same same answer when
applied to the same number, no?

  Christian.
