I don't have a definitive answer, but I think that with the released code,
MKL is only really useful with Intel compilers. There have been attempts by
developers to use MKL with gnu compilers, but I don't think those have made
it into the released code base yet.
A question: why do you want to do this? Generally, the benefits of MKL
(vs. just using the standard FFTW builds) are modest to non-existent.
That said, there might be special cases where MKL would help enough to be
worthwhile. So I'm wondering if you have identified a particular need for
MKL or not.
