I does look like a joke.
Here is print np.finfo(np.longdouble)

In [2]: np.__version__
Out[2]: '1.6.1'

In [3]: np.flo
np.float        np.float32      np.float_       np.floor
np.float16      np.float64      np.floating     np.floor_divide

In [3]: print np.finfo(np.longdouble)
Machine parameters for float64
