Reproducibility versus speed is a particular issue with floating point libraries - NumPy using ATLAS vs OpenBLAST vs Intel MKL vs just plain NumPy will probably all give slightly different answers (on some tasks), and at different speed. In this case, for simplicity I would advocate plain NumPy, without worrying about needing ATLAS. For packages needing NumPy with ALTAS, perhaps a new Tool Shed entry could be created, package_numpy_1_7_with_atlas or similar (based on the current configuration)?
