No, I'm not introducing anything new.  I just changed the name of the 
scalar type objects.  They used to be conveying type information for the 
array (but that is now handled by the dtype objects), and so I changed 
the name of the scalars from <x>_arrtype to <x>scalar to better convey 
what they are. 

The code in the name attribute getter was expecting an underscore which 
isn't there anymore.
