Good point, I've now added them in the CVS version.  I haven't tested
them so you will need to check that they work correctly.

I used the GSL_ERROR_NULL macro to return a NULL pointer for
out-of-range arguments.  I think this should work ok.

Maybe we'll need to have a empty constructor inside an #ifdef
__cplusplus .. #endif to get rid of the warning.
