FWIW, Ada has built-in ability to interface to both Fortran and C (and Cobol and C++). Ada (GNAT) is set to use Fortran versions of BLAS and LAPACK but changing to C would be trivial.
On OS X, there are three symlinks in one directory, libclapack.dylib libf77lapack.dylib liblapack.dylib which all point to the same thing but in another directory: libLAPACK.dylib For BLAS, there are only two symlinks, libblas.dylib libcblas.dylib pointing to libBLAS.dylib This seems to indicate that the pointed-to libraries have both C and Fortran symbols in them. The 4.3 compiler works fine with those libraries except for the need to delete a single line in a spec file in GNAT itself. (I don't know why). The macada.org guys know about this.
