Perhaps the test worth to be skipped on big endian architectures....

Should I add a patch?

The test fails with

>                       assert result.dtype == expected.dtype
E                       AssertionError: assert dtype('<i8') == dtype('int64')
E                        +  where dtype('<i8') = memmap([0, 1, 2, 3, 4]).dtype
E                        +  and   dtype('int64') = array([0, 1, 2, 3, 4]).dtype

I guess this has to do with the endiannes of s390x (are all other infrastructures little endian?) ... I'm trying to understand how numpy exactly represent 'int64' ...
