The current behavior is absolutely correct --- the problem is that this not the way to look for the null space of a matrix. Ask e.g. stackoverflow on the mailing lists for more explanation.

Sadly, numpy.linalg.solve is giving me crap:
outputs a zero vector.
If it means anything, I'm not just trying to break numpy; this is a real system of stoichiometric equations. The computer algebra system Maxima outputs the correct answer. In Maxima what I did was type in:
It outputs:
Thanks in advance for your hard work.
