BLAS and LAPACK are actually Fortran, which does not have a single C ABI. The ABI depends on the Fortran compiler. g77 and gfortran will produce different C ABIs. This is a consistent source of PITA in any scientific programming that combines C and Fortran. There is cblas though, which is a C API, but it does not include LAPACK. Another thing is that libraries are different. MSVC wants a .lib file, but MinGW produces .a files like GCC does on Linux. Perhaps you can generate a .lib file from a .a file, but I have never tried.
