I don't like it, perhaps because I don't use float arrays. It makes most of 
the Array module useless as far as performance is concerned because they do 
the array kind check in all inner loops.

float array should be a separate type. Unfortunately OCaml can't provide 
uniform syntax for accessing elements in this case and it would require 
separate functions like those in Array.
