Or possibly even a special clause in the code which causes a slower 
version with a temporary matrix to execute and then copy the results 
back?

A while ago I was having some problems with matrix multiplication. I was 
using functions like:

void dMULTIPLY0_333(dReal *A, const dReal *B, const dReal *C)

As I found out, the reason why I had weird results was cause my "output" 
matrix happened to be on of the input matrices. I was using 2 variables 
instead of 3. In other words, I was doing something like this: A=BxA
No one told me that I have to use 3 separate matrices. I think there should 
be a warning in documentation
