 Replying to [comment:15 dunfield]:
 > I did a little testing, and definitely the issue is a result of the
 scipy upgrade and not the numpy one.  It also shows up on OS X version
 10.8 as well.

 remarkably sensitive to the OS/CPU/compiler version/phase of the moon.  I
 once had two Ubuntu 12.04 virtual machines running on the same physical
 hardware where the last digit differed like this; one had a 32bit kernel
 and the other a 64bit one, which you wouldn't think would make a
 difference...

 Oh, yes I would. But then I have seen tickets where that happens in the
 last 6 years.

 harmless enough in this instance.   So I've changed the status back to
 "positive review".

 It is technically harmless it is however a curiosity because the change is
 sudden. If I had time I would check other versions of scipy to narrow down
 when the change happened and try to understand why.
