Thanks for your update.

I tried to start gimp with this openblas version installed and it did
not crashed or hanged.

But there's still a possible crash that can occur, when I do a test that
does dl_open followed by dl_close of libopenblas, I get a segfault when
stopping the thread that does the dl_open/dl_close.

This crash doesn't seem to cause issues to gimp but might on some
machines (maybe no threads are used by gimp when indirectly loading
openblas and so the crash doesn't occur, but not sure at all).

More extensive information here: [0].

If no one object that gimp doesn't crash anymore with that 3.3 version,
maybe this bug can be closed (letting the crash of the dl_open/dl_close
test be handled by upstream only [0]).
