Thanks for the suggestion, but this violates policy, which states that
I can only use sections 1 through 9.  Am preparing a release of
atlas-test which replaces atlas3-test to match the converse which

We need to remove all these older blas/lapack/atlas packages, but a
few other packages still have not upgraded yet :-(.

Take care,
