[Numpy-discussion] numpy.any segfaults for large object arrays

[Joris De Ridder]

I cannot confirm the problem on my intel macbook pro using the same  
Python and Numpy versions. Although any(numpy.array(large_none)) takes  
a significantly longer time than any(numpy.array(large_zero)), the  
former does not segfault on my machine.
