Perhaps our scipy build should explicitly avoid libopenblas.so by

Sounds good to me if exporting these environment variables solves the
problem.
But what happens during run time? Will scipy mix the usage of
(libopenblas.so) and (libblas.so + liblapack.so) ?
I don't think so. Once its built and linked, it's got the NEEDED
liblapack.so headers so no more fuss about libopenblas.so
It looks like there's something in the configuration pattern which
explicitly checks for openblas and links to it if its found. The weird
things is there is no such explicit check in the scipy code. I wonder if
it's grabbing some setup from numpy. Digging further, by the look of it
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/numpy/distutils/system_info.py is the
root of the problem.
