Have you investigated
the Vector, Signal and Image Processing Library (VSIPL)

	http://www.vsipl.org/

Randy Judd <judd at nosc dot mil>
(a contributor to this discussion goup in 2000)
has written a public domain version of the VSIPL
which you can download from the VSIPL web site by clicking
on the SOFTWARE radio button on the left hand side of the page.

The VSIPL and GSL are similar in many respects
and I hope that, one day, the GSL will support the VSIPL API.
