The current status is:

* If a genr expression "naturally" produces a matrix result, but 
the matrix is 1x1, and the user has not forced the issue by 
specifying a result-type of "scalar" or "matrix", then we leave 
the result as a 1x1 matrix.  (As per Stefano's suggestion.)

* But we've tried to make inter-conversion between 1x1 matrices 
and scalars (inside genr) more flexible, so that the type of
the result should make less difference to the user.
