Oops. I did not realize that you want to apply outsize to the last
dimension only.  For ndim>1, you can do

>>> empty(arra.shape[:-1]+(outsize(arra.shape[-1]),))

That will not work work for scalars though, but you might want to
rethink whether your function makes sense for scalars.  Remember, 1 is
not the same as [1] in python, you maybe trying to copy MATLAP design
too literally.
