[Numpy-discussion] Bus error for Debian / SPARC on current trunk

[Mark Wiebe]

I've pushed a bugfix to github, can you confirm that the crash goes away on
your test box? Thanks for tracking that down, the stack trace was very
helpful. Since x86 machines don't have as strict alignment requirements,
bugs like this one will generally remain undetected until someone tests on
an architecture like sparc.

Cheers,
Mark
