[Numpy-discussion] assert_allclose equal_nan default value.

[Charles R Harris]

Hi All,

Just a heads up that there is a PR changing the default value of
`equal_nan` to `True` in the `assert_allclose` test function. The
`equal_nan` argument was previously ineffective due to a bug that has
recently been fixed. The current default value of `False` is not backward
compatible and causes test failures in  scipy. See the extended argument at
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/8184. I think this change is the right
thing to do but want to make sure everyone is aware of it.

Chuck
