Joachim!

Thanks for the numpy.isscalar patch. I wonder if you know if this is related 
to a bug in Python2.6 together with numpy? As there really should not be a 
reason for 

  isinstance(float128(1.), float)

to be False. I have implemented our own IsInteger function in the SWIG layer 
(not exposed to Python) for checking integer types in typemaps for this 
particular reason.

I read somewhere (cannot remember where now) that Python2.6 introduced a more 
efficient way of checking for int and float types, which the numpy guys where 
not aware of, so some of the tests failed. However I also read that this 
should be fixed in Python2.7.
