I dislike what you did at lines 983-1012 (replace a local variable by
possibly-many stores into an array). Also, as long as we're fixing
unreadable code, how about (line 1019)
for (i = j = 0, k = 1; i < ndim; k *= dims[i++], j += k);
becomes
for (i = j = 0, k = 1; i < ndim; i++)
k *= dims[i], j += k;
or some such. The empty loop body is a mistake waiting to happen.
Looks fine to me otherwise.
