Backport of #14605.
PyArray_DescrCheck
was defined incorrectly. Redefine and addPyArray_DescrCheckExact
.This becomes a problem if we allow subclassing
PyArrayDescr_Type
, and should be backported to any version we still support to prevent issues when using a newer NumPy with code compiled with an older NumPy. Searching scipy/pandas/astropy/numba only turned up a use inside numba. Once this is merged we should submit an issue there to work around this for old versions.
