Initially a was afraid of this... However, in practise the matrix does
not seems to change
much.

With pretty extreme values in xicc/xmatric.c all my curves are very smooth:

#define XSHAPE_BASE  0.001
#define XSHAPE_HBASE 0.01

Accuracy is indeed a bit reduced, but considering the fact that I'm
trying to proceduce
"generic" profiles, this is very acceptable, especially since the
profiles seem to be
giving me much better results in gradient area's.
