Hm, I see.  That pull request looks like it needs some love.  I'll
throw a look at what is done there and what the problem with merge
conflicts is.

Aha.  Well, that's good news, I guess :-)

Hm, I see.  I think I'll at least look into those issues.  Maybe there
are some simpler things I could fix and get the general idea.
Eventually, I don't mind working on linear algebra, so exploring this
module may result in me preparing another proposal.
