Bill,
please mail me a pointer to your software.
However, without wanting to be disrespectful of your software, I wonder
if this is such a wise approach. Lapack is a high quality code base that
supports several data formats: dense, symmetric, banded, tridiagonal.
There is use for that, so before you can state

you have to duplicate a lot of that functionality.
Then, Lapack has (especially in the eigenvalue part) state of the art
algorithms. The people coming up with the best algorithms are
implementing them straight in Lapack. What eigenvalue algorithms do you
use? Condition estimation, iterative refinement, et cetera.
