Comment(by irving):

 Trying again with better formatting:

 {{{
 def cross(u,v):
   # The numpy version doesn't always broadcast correctly, so we roll our
 own cross product routine.
   # Unfortunately, it's impossible to make 1D/2D cross products work
 correctly together with
   # broadcasting, so stick to 3D for now.
   assert u.shape[-1]==v.shape[-1]==3
   uv = empty(broadcast(u,v).shape)
   u0,u1,u2 = u[...,0],u[...,1],u[...,2]
   v0,v1,v2 = v[...,0],v[...,1],v[...,2]
   uv[...,0] = u1*v2-u2*v1
   uv[...,1] = u2*v0-u0*v2
   uv[...,2] = u0*v1-u1*v0
   return uv
 }}}
