Personally I don't use the atlas variant as I've found it causes a lot
of build problems. I find the Accelerate framework fast enough for my
needs, but my codes aren't that processor intensive. If someone wanted
to add an MKL variant I'd be willing to accept it providing they were
willing to support it.
