You can use the one in Accelerate.framework. The blas and lapack
libraries hide in /System/Library/Framework/Accelerate.framework/
Frameworks/vecLib.framework/Versions/A/ and we helpfully changed
the capitalization in the library names to make life even more
difficult for you (through no deliberate engineering decision
AFAIK). The easiest (and supported!) way to get them is to just pass
-framework Accelerate to the linker. I recommend you do that if you
intend for the binaries to work on other people's machines for many
years to come. We are currently looking at ways to provide a
supported way to use these with code that is expecting them to live
in some place a bit more standard.
