* String version checks will break because, e.g., '1.9' > '1.10' is True. A
NumpyVersion class has been added that can be used for such comparisons.
* The diagonal and diag functions will return writeable views in 1.10.0
+* The `S` and/or `a` dtypes may be changed to represent Python strings
+ instead of bytes, in Python 3 these two types are very different.
