Hi,
Old versions of Numeric (specifically, version 21) don't have symbols 
such at UInt8 defined. I modified nc_imports to deal with this case, 
but I wanted to fly it past the experts in case it misses some subtle 
intricacy.
Furthermore, I get the following bug when trying to run 
examples/simple_plot.py on Windows XP, matplotlib 0.54, Numeric 21. Is 
this fixable?
