here is the workspace `w` description of the main slsqp routine

http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/browser/trunk/scipy/optimize/slsqp/slsqp_optmz.f#L144

w is available in python, but non of the content of it is used in python

http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/browser/trunk/scipy/optimize/slsqp.py#L345

So, correctly extracting the slices from the workspace w should be
possible to get the Lagrange multipliers that were used.
