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.
