Thank you Sebastian.
I discovered also that the problem could be solved using the global
numpy.reshape.
That function, does not complain if the last parameter is simply "F"
and not "storage=F".
Anyway the issue is still open.
If anyone knows it, is it possible to explicitly specify a named
parameter through a call to "attr" ?
