New submission from Demian Brecht: array.array doesn't implement the buffer interface in 2.7, so memoryviews cannot be applied to them. As memoryview has been backported to 2.7, array.array should be updated to support it. Either that, or the 2.7 documentation should be updated to reflect the lack of support for arrays in 2.7 (http://docs.python.org/2.7/c-api/buffer.html).
