ATLAS is no small compilation either. But i don't see a problem here
since James' Portfile
provides variants for gcc and altas, so one could turn these
dependencies of. However i'd like
to propose renaming the no_* variants into gcc43 and atlas and making
them default variants.
This way additional variants like gcc44 could easily be added
