Version 0.3.7
11-Aug 2019
common:

defined no longer causes build failures in ctest or utest
* defining NO_AFFINITY or USE_TLS to 0 in gmake builds no longer
has the same effect as setting them to 1
* a new test program was added to allow checking the library for
thread safety

OpenBLAS itself is built without multithreading but will be
called from multiple threads.

was fixed
