python (scipy): Resizing a sparse matrix

I'm having trouble resizing a matrix - the set_shape function seems to have no effect:

>>> M
<14x3562 sparse matrix of type '<type 'numpy.float32'>'
   with 6136 stored elements in LInked List format>
>>> new_shape = (15,3562)
>>> M.set_shape(new_shape)
>>> M
<14x3562 sparse matrix of type '<type 'numpy.float32'>'
   with 6136 stored elements in LInked List format>

Anyone else come across this?

I also tried doing this by hand, i.e.

>>> M._shape = new_shape
>>> M.data = np.concatenate(M.data, np.empty((0,0), dtype=np.float32))

but that throws up an error:

*** TypeError: only length-1 arrays can be converted to Python scalars

or

>>> M.data = np.concatenate(M.data, [])
*** TypeError: an integer is required

For info:

If you just want to add a row of zeros at the end:

>>> M = sp.lil_matrix((14, 3562))
>>> sp.vstack([M, sp.lil_matrix((1, 3562))])
<15x3562 sparse matrix of type '<type 'numpy.float64'>'
        with 0 stored elements in COOrdinate format>
