You don't need to copy anything.

However, you do need to ensure that:

1. The macros HAVE_LIBLAPACK, HAVE_LIBBLAS and HAVE_G2C_H are defined
in <grass/config.h>, otherwise la.c will compile to an empty object
file (one which contains no code).

2. The variables LAPACKLIB and BLASLIB are defined in
include/Make/Platform.make.

3. You have the <g2c.h> header (which defines the fortran types in
terms of C types), and suitable versions of the BLAS and LAPACK
libraries (where "suitable" means that the implementations match the
prototypes in <grass/blas.h> and <grass/lapack.h>.
