I think it might depend on some factors:

In [1]: a = np.array(['a','b'], dtype=np.object)

In [2]: a=='a'
Out[2]: array([ True, False], dtype=bool)

In [3]: a==None
Out[3]: False

In [4]: a == []
Out[4]: False

In [5]: a == ''
Out[5]: array([False, False], dtype=bool)

In [6]: a == dict()
Out[6]: array([False, False], dtype=bool)

In [7]: numpy.__version__
Out[7]: '1.4.0.dev6885'

In [8]: a == 5
Out[8]: array([False, False], dtype=bool)

In [9]: a == 5.
Out[9]: array([False, False], dtype=bool)

But based on these results, I have no idea what the factors might be.  I
know this works with datetime objects, but I'm really not sure why None and
the empty list don't work.
