Sounds good to me.

A couple of comments:

o Can this be called pseudo-inverse instead of pinv?  My general rule
  has been if LAPACK has a certain useful routine, then use that name,
  otherwise pick a more useful, less abbreviated name. :-)

o Should the args to pinv be keyword args instead of optional?  If so,
  please make the mthd arg have the keyword :method instead.  Easier
  to figure out what it is. :-)

Everything else looks good.
