Hi Ralf,

regarding Python 3:

1) The patch from numpy ticket #1919 might be necessary on some 
platforms <http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1919>.

2) On my system, 2to3 did not correctly convert all imports in 
special.__init__.py, special.add_newdocs.py, and linalg.misc.py. I 
needed to manually change

-from _logit import logit, expit
+from ._logit import logit, expit

-import fblas
+from . import fblas

3) The attached patch fixes some test errors and failures.

Christoph
