I haven't done any porting myself, but you might want to look at
numpy/oldnumeric to see how compatibility is done. That module is gone in
numpy master, but is included in earlier versions. As to the include, for
numpy it is `<numpy/arrayobject.h>, but a lot of things have been
added/changed/deprecated. There are also two scripts in oldnumeric that
help translating numeric to numpy: alter_code1.py and alter_code2.py. I
haven't used either.

There are probably folks on the list who can give you more specific advice.
