a buffer object (i.e. the .data attribute of ndarrays) without copying
data?
I need this for avoid creating a new function that deals with buffer
objects (instead of reusing the one for str/byte objects that I already
As str objects are supposed to be immutable, I think anything
official that makes a string from a numpy array is supposed to copy
the data. But I think you can use ctypes to wrap a pointer and a
length as a python string.
