[SciPy-Dev] Use vecLibFort instead of Accelerate?

There is a library called vecLibFort that re-exports all the BLAS and
LAPACK symbols in Accelerate with gfortran ABI:
https://github.com/mcg1969/vecLibFort
For scipy.linalg vecLibFort would solve several issues:
- Special wrappers for Accelerate would no longer be needed and can be
removed from the source.
- For the new Cython layer, the fortranname bug in f2py would go away – the
wrappers are no longer needed.
- The sgemv AVX segfault in Mavericks is corrected for by calling sgemm
when data are not 32 byte aligned.
