Yes I understand that this is a thorny issue. I was kinda hoping NumPy would just forward complex arithmetic to the underlying C implementation, but apparently that's not the case (which OTOH makes sense as the use of C99 complex numbers is not that widespread).

FWIW, the quoted section in the C standard (Annex G) contains the pseudocode for standard-conforming implementations of complex multiplication and division, in case the decision is taken to change the behaviour.
