I don't see generics as the main selling point of C++ for Numpy. What I
expect to be really useful is exception handling, smart pointers, and RIAA.
And maybe some carefule uses of classes and inheritance. Having a standard
inline keyword will be nice too. But I'm not a modern C++ guru, so I may
have missed a lot of things.
