I'm ready to follow your suggestion. BTW, this naming convention won't be
invariant in respect of hypotetical datatype addition ("s", "c") or removal
in underlying lapack.ijs and lapack.so in future.
There is another approach with wildchar in datatype position, e.g.
"xgeev", "ugeev", "ageev" etc. Though, "no datatype mentioning at all" seemed
to me a more J-ish way.
