AFAIK, it's fairly easy to get a package into Extras if you are willing to 
maintain it.  Some of the other repos may also be willing to carry it on 
request, esp. if it comes with a maintainer.  LAPACK should be pretty easy 
to maintain, too, as it is fairly standalone and there's already a decent 
spec file for it.

Ah, well.  I've actually switched to ACPI pretty permaently now, since 
there are patches for the radeonfb module that solve the Thinkpad ACPI 
suspend power-drain problem.  There's a bug filed in Red Hat Bugzilla 
(don't have the number handy) that points to a bug in the kernel.org 
Bugzilla with that discussion and pointers to test kernels.
