I was confused. I see the only version of the library shipped is built with pthreads. I think there should be serial, pthreads, and OpenMP versions, as for Fedora. It may also be useful to provide the 64-bit integer versions, like Fedora; that's useful for at least a flagship chemistry program. I also remembered the problems with 0.2.20. I'll send a patch for the wrong cache size used on some x86_64 when I get a chance.
