Will this mean NumPy, SciPy et al. can start using OpenBLAS in the
"official" binary packages, e.g. on Windows and Mac OS X? ATLAS is slow and
Accelerate conflicts with fork as well. 

Will dotblas be built against OpenBLAS? AFAIK, it is only buit against
ATLAS or MKL, not any other BLAS, but it should just be a matter of
changing the build/link process.
