All right, I've updated the generator to remove assertions based on output
integer arguments. About 8 routines have been updated. hseqr now passes, so
we're at 41/42.

I see trevc has an agument MM that is a trait that depends on other
arguments. Interesting stuff.

I've also started to port the atlas regressions, which has uncovered some
bugs and missing features in the blas (and lapack) bindings. Apart from
this, in which Jamfile are BOOST_NUMERIC_BINDINGS_BLAS_CBLAS and/or
BOOST_NUMERIC_BINDINGS_LAPACK_CLAPACK to be added? Somewhere near ATLAS, I
guess, so we can run the resulting atlas/blas regressions on all supported
backends. However, bjam gave errors on all of my trials.

Cheers,
