An interesting an idea.  I've noticed some random references to SENAC in
the f2cl code.
Googling doesn't give any references that I can actually read without an
ACM subscription.

What did SENAC do?  Do we want to create all the entrypoints to LAPACK
in maxima?

I think a very thin interface could be created "automatically" because
f2cl knows the function signatures of every function during conversion. 
It's only a small matter of programming. :-)
