Numpy 1.9.2 test failures

Here were my test results on numpy 1.9.2: one test failure; not really sure what to do about it.

I'm also getting some intermittent failures:

One time, I got:

======================================================================

And one other time, I got:

I recompiled numpy 1.9.2 -- I'm not picking up any intermittent failures.

I don't think that ValueError thing is a big issue, although I could be wrong. If it becomes an issue in the future, here is the patch I added for future reference:

Replace numpy/doc/__init__.py with:

from __future__ import division, absolute_import, print_function

import os

ref_dir = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__))

__all__ = sorted(f[:-3] for f in os.listdir(ref_dir) if f.endswith('.py') and
           not f.startswith('__'))

for f in __all__:
    try:
        __import__(__name__ + '.' + f)
    except ValueError:
        pass  # print(f)

del f, ref_dir

__doc__ = """\
Topical documentation
=====================

The following topics are available:
%s

You can view them by

>>> help(np.doc.TOPIC)                                      #doctest: +SKIP

""" % '\n- '.join([''] + __all__)

__all__.extend(['__doc__'])

Basically, I wrapped the __import__ statement with a try/except.
