I understand and to some extent share, your frustration, but the problem
already existed with Numeric and numarray. Transitioning to numpy is the
solution -- not the problem.

Yes, it must, and that's where we are now. It is a bit tricky, but once
numpy reached 1.0 (soon, I think and hope!), we can all start using it
and these problems will fade away....

well, anyone using Numeric (or numarray), can just keep on using it for
a god while. So something that works now should work for a while into
the future.
