You can have a look at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?45008,
this test failure has been discussed and known for some time. If the
tests fail with OpenBLAS due to a sign difference, but pass when using
the reference BLAS library, then it's #45008.

Thank you Mike.

Olaf, with this info I am more confident that we should go ahead with the release.

I also am inclined to mark these as known errors, with the explanation that mike has given. 

I will repeat this in bug #45008
