+1 for having collaborators who independently reproduce results.

I think the re-usability of workspaces is implied by the manual but I
do not see where it is explicitly stated.

Do you think adding "A workspace may be used to perform multiple
numerical integrations." to the end of gsl_integration_workspace's
documentation at
http://www.gnu.org/s/gsl/manual/html_node/QAG-adaptive-integration.html
would be sufficiently clear?  Can you think of better wording?  Maybe
"multiple sequential numerical integrations"?
