I had a problem at one point on my G4 machine when we were testing the 
prior atlas update, and that was why the powerpc version got held back 
at 3.9.13 at that time. I don't have access to that machine right now 
(turned off and 300 miles away), so I can't confirm or test any issues.

Maybe Fink should do the following if a fix can't be found in a 
reasonable time interval:

1) Copy the existing atlas.info in 10.4/ to atlas-powerpc.info.
2) Tag that with Distribution: powerpc and Depends: 64bit-cpu (so that 
people don't think they can build it on a G5 and install it on a G4).
3) Tag 10.4/*/atlas.info with Distribution: i386, x86_64.
(Here I'm assuming that folks running 32-bit-only intel machines can 
actually build atlas-3.10.1.)
4) Resurrect the old atlas-powerpc.info (3.9.13) as atlas-ppc32.info or 
something, under the new package name name atlas-ppc32.
5) Tweak its library build to avoid having %p/lib/libblas.dylib and 
%p/lib/liblapack.dylib in atlas-ppc32-shlibs.
7) Have all of the atlas-using packages in the 10.4/ tree carry 
dependencies on atlas (>= 3.10-1) | atlas-ppc32 (and similarly for the 
-shlibs).

It's a bit ugly, but given that we don't have a way to differentiate 
between G4s and G5s otherwise I can't really think of another option 
that can be rolled out quickly.  Plus, if we do find a fix, we can just 
scrub atlas-ppc32 without changing the reverse-depends--they'll just 
complain that atlas-ppc32 doesn't exist any more and install atlas.
