I don't truly understand it myself. I did modify the test to have unequal chunks however as it can't hurt to check that as well. My best guess is that the later call to `PyArray_GETITEM` is returning some `(value, shared_ptr)` pair structure and storing that into the dictionary and the later reassignment is modifying the `shared_ptr` but not the `value`. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
