External BLASs work for me perfectly on other platforms than cygwin. Hence it is cygwin that I would not recommend given the native Windows version is both faster and passes the checks. Uwe Ligges
Yeah, I am almost sure that your view as R developer and mine as package maintainer for several math packages in cygwin do not match. If speed was the only parameter for a solution choice , we should all only use Linux for math and Windows for games. From http://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4582 it is clear that R expectation from a BLAS library is different from the netlib BLAS reference implementation and I presume it happens also on any Linux using the netlib BLAS, so I do not see it as a specific cygwin bug.
