Yes, I understand that, but if we want to provide non broken packages 
for mkl and co, we need to separate the code in scipy.fftpack. Or did 
you mean just put the current code in scikits, even if not buildable, 
and people who want them just have to upgrade the code ?

For djbfft, the problem is that its performances are dependent on the 
compiler options. IOW, building it should be easy, building it such as 
it is faster than fftpack maybe not so.

cheers,
