This may be too late or too picky, but...

This seems like too many choices, leading to possible confusion when 
reading other people's extensions or the numpy code itself. Could you 
standardize on one (I like npy_) or two (if you have to keep PyArray_ 
for some reason and can't put it in a backwards-compatibility header 
somewhere).

Overall it's great. I'm really glad to hear you're so close to freezing 
the features.
