I compiled myself a 64-bit Windows version of this library for use with J 
back in April 2010.

As far as I recall it wasn't tremendously difficult, but I didn't do 
anything so useful as keep step-by-step instructions...  I seem to remember 
that there was a little fiddling around to do to get a .dll rather than a 
.lib, and to make sure that the functions required by lapack.ijs were all 
exported by the library, but otherwise it was pretty much a case of just 
following the instructions at 
http://icl.cs.utk.edu/lapack-for-windows/clapack/index.html#build.

I'm more than happy for my version of the library to be used by anyone who'd 
like to try it - though be warned that if it doesn't work for you, I'm 
afraid that I won't care enough to do anything about it!

I don't believe that this list accepts attachments - where should I send it 
to?

David
