There is no such thing as "Eigen library". Eigen is fully implemented in 
header files. Cython would just generate C++ code that uses Eigen API.

Also, Eigen is now licensed under MPL2, which is file-level and permissive one 
[1]. I don't understand what you mean by 'taint' above and how this could 
restrict someone license-wise.
