Thank you very much for the information!
There are weird but important reasons why we are stuck with Numeric 24.2 for the
foreseeable future. It is extremely valuable that you provide a smooth upgrade
path.

nope, there are no problems. In fact, converting between the two arrays
types with asarray() works very efficiently.
I sure wish everyone would make the transition, though.
