[petsc-dev] building with MKL

  This library does not have the function mkl_set_num_thread() hence PETSc concludes it is not MKL and doesn't check for the various MKL specific information.  Yet the single file does appear to have a complete copy of BLAS/LAPACK.

If the compiler crashes it’s always on the petsc complex mode. I think I have submitted tickets about that, so maybe it’s fixed in update 3.
