I believe the problem is in numpy/core/src/arrayobject.c:
2635 static PyObject *
2636 array_subscript_simple(PyArrayObject *self, PyObject *op)
2637 {
2638 intp dimensions[MAX_DIMS], strides[MAX_DIMS];
2639 intp offset;
2640 int nd;
2641 PyArrayObject *other;
2642 intp value;
2643
2644 value = PyArray_PyIntAsIntp(op);
