I've looked into this and it should be pretty easy to split up NumPy.
Here is what I got:

    332    1075   11818 Include/arrayobject.h
    190     585    6704 Include/ufuncobject.h

   2037    6451   53891 Src/arrayobject.c
    615    2690   28201 Src/arraytypes.c
      2       2      24 Src/multiarray.def
   1208    3818   31603 Src/multiarraymodule.c

    103     235    2964 Lib/UserArray.py
   8259   31425  282442 total


On a Intel Linux box I get the following libraries:

		 163996 _numpymodule.so
		  69147 multiarraymodule.so
		 159556 umathmodule.so
		 392699 total

I wonder if this is too large.  Maybe umath should be left out.  Also,
how would the existing array module fix in with this?
