Thanks for that. Most of the new errors look to be the result of the change
in divmod, where before divmod(float64(1.0), 0.0) was (inf, nan) and it is
now (nan, nan).  There are also two errors in matplotlib that look to be
the result of the slight change in the numerical values of remainder due to
improved precision. I would class those errors as more of a test problem
resulting from the inherent imprecision of floating point than a numpy
regression.
