I prefer Perry's longstanding suggestion: things that do not add to
distribution complexity should go into numpy.  If it compiles as
easily as numpy itself, it should go into numpy where sensible.  It
remains a fact of life that numpy gets a wider distribution than
scipy, and some packages are hesitant to require scipy as a prereq
because of the additional complexity or building fortran, etc.  I
would be nice to have as much as possible in the most widely
distributed package IMO.
