If we report a segfault Apple will probably think we are to blame. 99.9 %
of bug reports come from idiots, and those who screen bug reports are
basically payed to hit the ignore button. Indeed, good luck on reporting
it.
I think in the short run we will be better off re-implementing cblas_sgemv
with cblas_sgemm on Apple OSes. Luckily the error in cblas_sgemv does not
silently produce garbage data but segfaults the process, so anyone affected
will see it.
