It does, which is why I wanted to bring it up here. > which may legitimately raise RuntimeWarnings while running their test > suites > (unless I read the patch wrong).

It calls attention to those RuntimeWarnings, which may only occur on certain platforms. If they're legitimate, you silence them in the test suite of that package. If not, you fix them. Would you agree with that? Or would you prefer to just ignore DeprecationWarnings and/or RuntimeWarnings in skimage for example? Note that the changed behavior would only be visible for people running numpy master. Ralf
