### Describe your issue. The test `scipy.sparse.linalg.tests.test_propack::test_svdp` with parameters `which='LM'`, `irl=True`, `precision='complex8'` and `ctor=np.array` triggers a seg. fault. E.g. (after installing the master branch with `pip install .`): ``` $...

### Describe your issue. `vonmises` is a somewhat incomplete and broken implementation of a circular distribution. This shows up in a calculation such as using the `expect` method to compute...
