<p>Hi Ryan, I'd like to try my hand at this. I just have a trivial question, and I hope it isn't too kiddish:</p>

<ul>
<li>For the last point, do you mean that I should look for similar/repetitive definitions in mlpack and hence implement <code>extern template</code> definitions for them where I find them repeating? </li>
</ul>

<p>As for the first 2 points, I've been looking at the source code and I'll try my best to redistribute the headers so as to minimize compile time.</p>
