I think it's an error. The method definition should probably just be:
>
> linreg{T<:Number,S<:Number}(X::AbstractVector{T}, y::AbstractVector{S}) =
> [ones(T, size(X,1)) X] \ y

I notice a lot of the methods in linalg/generics.jl just check for
AbstractVectors etc without requiring numeric types even though that would
be the more correct check.

On it! Taking me a bit of sweat to figure out the build process and github
stuff but once I have that all sorted a PR will be submitted. Thanks for
the quick response.
