Hi,

I'm getting a consistent seg fault by running this code:

import numpy

print "numpy version-->", numpy.__version__
N = 1000*1000
a = numpy.array([1,2])
for i in xrange(N):
    a = a[::-1]

and the output for my machine:

numpy version--> 1.0.2.dev3546
Violació de segment

I need 1 million of iterations for getting the segfault, but your mileage may vary.
