# This Python wrapper vendors BLIS for thinc; system sci-libs/blis is not a
# drop-in replacement for that pinned layer.
# Bundled BLIS 0.7.0 references KNL flags removed by GCC 16; deleting only its
# kernels leaves dispatch symbols unresolved. Use generic until upstream's
# vendored BLIS drops KNL, accepting reduced SIMD performance.
