I understand that Robert's position is if supporting too many backends
is a burden, just drop mkl and fftw(2/3). Supporting fftpack and djbfft
only would certainly be much easier.

Well, for people that want Matlab-fast FFT (and those are the people you want to satisfy with the plug-in system with numpy), dropping the fastest libraries is not the best way to get them.
Just my two cents.
