Issue

When numexpr 2.10.1 is installed together with numpy 1.22, on import numexpr it throws:

RuntimeError: module was compiled against NumPy C-API version 0x10 (NumPy 1.23) but the running NumPy has C-API version 0xf. Check the section C-API incompatibility at the Troubleshooting ImportError section at https://numpy.org/devdocs/user/troubleshooting-importerror.html#c-api-incompatibility for indications on how to solve this problem.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "...\envs\test-numexpr\lib\site-packages\numexpr\__init__.py", line 24, in <module>
    from numexpr.interpreter import MAX_THREADS, use_vml, __BLOCK_SIZE1__
ImportError: numpy._core.multiarray failed to import

To reproduce:

conda create -n test-numexpr numexpr=2.10.1=mkl* numpy=1.22.4 python=3.10 -c https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge --override-channels
conda activate test-numexpr
python -c "import numexpr"

It seems to require numpy 2.0 to build too. Fixing that in a moment...
