With only a very brief scan, I would have 

_valid_ARGS= atlas netlib gotoblas openblas

Oldtimers will know "netlib" over "reference" and Goto's library
is called gotoblas.

The default should be netlib.  If you choose to set 
the default to openblas, does it install a symlink from
libopenblas to libblas.  In fact, I would recommend setting
a symlink for atlas, gotoblas, and openblas. This is, of course,
my own opinion.
