Or rather, to recover from the failed import as the OP wants to do:
mod = PyImport_ImportModule("numpy");
if (mod == NULL) {
/* Clear the error state since we are handling the error. */
PyErr_Clear();
/* ... set up for the sans-numpy case. */
}
else {
Py_DECREF(mod);
import_array();
/* ... set up for the with-numpy case. */
}
