BUG: Ticket #808: Insert was not performing properly when an integer was

the argument passed to be used as the item to be insterted, and a list was
passed as the positions. This was fixed by simply duplicating the item to
be inserted so that it was a list of equal length and then control was
passed to the already exsisting code to handel this case
