[SciPy-user] looking for a negative binomial distribution

[Anand Patil]

I'm getting another issue:
In [4]: numpy.random.geometric(0)
Out[4]: -2147483648

In [5]: numpy.random.geometric(1e-13)
Out[5]: -2147483648

but am using 1.2.0.dev5418, not the svn head. Does anyone get this with the
svn head?
