It isn't entirely clear what your question is, but shouldn't you just
be linking to the BLAS and leave the choice of BLAS to the individual
installation?  In most cases you should probably not be statically
linking to the BLAS.

Here is an old paper by Dirk with more information that might help you
sort it out.
