Also, note that there are some issues with Numpy 2.1 which cause the Numba test suite to fail: https://dev.azure.com/numba/numba/_build/results?buildId=17660&view=logs&j=5ac7dbda-0274-52a7-2be6-066fc01d5d9f&t=620d9c0c-9421-523c-f41b-31cbd49184cc&l=12497 please use current `main` of Numba with NumPy 2.1 with caution.
