For the record: I'm myself guilty of accepting all-negative suboffsets in memoryview.c (see init_slice()) and I think there's even a test for it. However, while it's ok for a specific function to accept this corner case, I'm not sure about is_contiguous(). People might rely on the fact that contiguous implies suboffsets==NULL. Sebastian, did this special case ever come up in the context of NumPy?
