Void tests the same thing and defines the bool cast somewhat reasonably (anything that is not all NULL)

c = np.array([1., 2.])
assert_array_equal(ufunc(a, c), ufunc([True, True], True))
assert ufunc.reduce(a) == True

"""
Logical ufuncs are normally well defined by working with the boolean
equivalent, i.e. casting all inputs to bools should work.

However, casting strings to bools is *currently* weird, because it
actually uses `bool(int(str))`. Thus we explicitly reject strings.
This test should succeed (and can probably just be removed) as soon as
string to bool casts are well defined in NumPy.
