One difference between development and release builds was that in development releases numpy.testing throws errors on floating point exceptions while the release version it did not. If that is still the case removing the distinction could require a lot of changes in upstream test suites that are not regularly run against development builds. The motivation is not quite clear to me, can you please elaborate on what you want to do. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
