On a more general note, if we change to a ufunc, it will get us stuck with
sinc being the normalized version, where the units of the input have to be
in the half-cycles preferred by signal-processing people rather than the
radians preferred by mathematicians.

In this respect, note that there is an outstanding issue about whether to
allow one to choose between the two:
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/13457 (which itself was raised
following an inconclusive PR that tried to add a keyword argument for it).

Adding a keyword argument is much easier for a general function than for a
ufunc.
