I want to understand this a bit more clearly:

The package that uses BLAS is wip/dlib-cpp and it produces libdlib.a

Then there is my application say a.out which links against libdlib.a and
does not directly call anything from BLAS.

Now the choice of openblas implementation is to be made when - when
creating libdlib.a or when creating a.out?

To the extent I see cblas.h, it has only API signatures, no structures
etc. The cblas.h of various variants isn't exactly same, but for the
moment let's keep the corner case issues aside and assume the package
(dlib) uses a subset of APIs that the other variants (pthread etc)
support.
