I'm looking for an alternative to the fsolve root finding algorithm distributed in SciPy (which is actually a wrapper around minpack). Is there any algorithm in NLopt that could be useful for this purpose?
No. (In principle, you could minimize |f(x)|^2 to try to find a root, but this is almost certainly less effective and less accurate than a dedicated root-finding algorithm.)
