Hmm, gmane seems to have swallowed my previous couple attempts to send a 
response... Perhaps it got labeled as spam due to inclusion of a link to numpy 
documentation. Aany way,

Jim, I believe that this is not actually a bug in numpy, but rather desired 
behavior. Documentation for numpy.ndarray.__float__ includes the following 
snippet:

"
Conversion; the operations complex, int, long, float, oct, and hex.
They work only on arrays that have one element in them and return
the appropriate scalar.
"
