I have the following Python code and output:

```

When I run this in R, the results do not match:

```

I know the differences are pretty minor, but this is a bit of an issue with my application. Also of note, the R results match Stata's results too.

Note: I'm using Python 2.7.2, NumpPy 1.6.1, R 2.15.2 GUI 1.53 Leopard build 64-bit (6335)
