Poking about with nm on the two different liblapack.so.3 files shows
they contain substantially different symbols, so I'd be surprised if
they were abi compatible.

Note also that building against lapack means that you package
installation may pull in atlas to satisfy the blas requirement of
lapack. Or it may pull in the blas package (a subpackage of lapack
which has a different blas implementation).
