It's interesting. I like to learn about software and CS history. I just
know that such possibility exists from few days,
and I've read it on r-project MacOSX FAQ :)

I'll try it as well, thanks for the tip. I'm aiming to compare different
BLAS implementations
on Linux and MacOS machines. However I'm currently only on x86-64
architectures.
