Is there a convention for dealing with NaN and Inf?  I've found that
trusting the default behavior is a very bad idea:

-----------------------------------
from numpy import *
x = zeros((5,7))
x[:,3:] = nan
x[:,-1] = inf
savetxt('problem_array.txt',x,delimiter='\t')
x2 = loadtxt('problem_array.txt')
print(x.shape)  # (5, 7)
print(x2.shape) # (5, 4)
print(x2[0,:])
print(open('problem_array.txt').readline().strip().split('\t'))
-----------------------------------

On my system the loaded array is reduced in size relative to the saved
array.  Does savetxt need some conditionals to deal with special
values like these?
