The new ndarray object of scipy core (successor to Numeric Python) is a 
C extension type that has a getitem defined in both the as_mapping and 
the as_sequence structure. 

The as_sequence mapping is just so PySequence_GetItem will work correctly.

As exposed to Python the ndarray object as a .__getitem__  wrapper method.

Why does this wrapper call the sequence getitem instead of the mapping 
getitem method?

Is there anyway to get at a mapping-style __getitem__ method from Python?

This looks like a bug to me (which is why I'm posting here...)

Thanks for any help or insight.
