Looks like armv7 is now being worked on (started Sep 14):
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/openblas-dev/_tY90FOlkbU
but right now nothing has been imported into their armv7 branch yet, they 
expect to need a couple more weeks to have something that at least compiles 
and produces correct results.

They also support some other architectures which may be interesting for our 
secondary arch teams.
