Many of the failures in https://gist.github.com/3194707/5696c8d3091b16ba8a9f00a921d512ed02e94d71 are of the type:
====================================================================== FAIL: Check byteorder of single-dimensional objects ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/ondrej/py33/lib/python3.3/site-packages/numpy/core/tests/test_unicode.py", line 286, in test_valuesSD self.assertTrue(ua[0] != ua2[0]) AssertionError: False is not true and those are caused by the following minimal example: Python 3.2: >>> from numpy import array >>> a = array(["abc"]) >>> b = a.newbyteorder() >>> a.dtype dtype('<U3') >>> b.dtype dtype('>U3') >>> a[0].dtype dtype('<U3') >>> b[0].dtype dtype('<U6') >>> a[0] == b[0] False >>> a[0] 'abc' >>> b[0] 'ៀ\udc00埀\udc00韀\udc00' Python 3.3: >>> from numpy import array >>> a = array(["abc"]) >>> b = a.newbyteorder() >>> a.dtype dtype('<U3') >>> b.dtype dtype('>U3') >>> a[0].dtype dtype('<U3') >>> b[0].dtype dtype('<U3') >>> a[0] == b[0] True >>> a[0] 'abc' >>> b[0] 'abc' So somehow the newbyteorder() method doesn't change the dtype of the elements in our new code. This method is implemented in numpy/core/src/multiarray/descriptor.c (I think), but so far I don't see where the problem could be. Any ideas?
