It's not weird because of the sequence abc, it's weird because of its 
treatment of equality, using the `==` operator as an element-wise 
operator instead of an object equality boolean operator.

Numpy is entitled to do this, but we're not obligated to take heroic 
measures to integrate numpy arrays with unittest methods. If we can do 
so easily, sure, let's fix it.

I think Ivan's suggestion that the assertSequenceEqual method fall back 
on element-by-element comparisons has some merit.
