So I don't know what is considered a fast time to build BLAS, but on my machine it was straightforward. I just typed make and it detected the number of cores, the architecture and built a multithreaded BLAS and LAPACK (which it automatically downloaded for me). It took about 90s to build and automatically run some tests (though I have 16 cores on that machine and it seemed to use them also for the whole build process automatically).
The LAPACK it downloaded also seems to be BSD licensed. It's written in Fortran I believe. The documentation says you can customise the build process in various ways. ..... Lapack is indeed Fortran, there are two CLapack implementation floating around one produced by ATLAS and an f2c version of the netlib reference fortran implementation.
