What is out of date? How hard is it to update from the current NumPy
sources? The NumPy web page is not very clear on what to do for the Win32
platform.

import ni, Numeric did not work.

import ni; import NumPy.Numeric did work, but this leads to some unwieldy
constructs like:

x = NumPy.Numeric.array([5,6,4,3,3])

Also, with this approach, I couldn't figure out how to access the MLab.py
routines.
