as far as I can tell its a regression of the 1.8.0 release but not the
1.8.1 release so I wouldn't consider it a blocker.
But its definitely a very nice to have.
Unfortunately it is probably also complicated and invasive to fix as it
would need either modifications of nditer or gufuncs (or a revert to non
gufunc) which are both quite complicated pieces of code.
