Comment (by tmonteil):

 As of today, this seems not to be fixed in the spkg proposed in #10508 :
 SAGE_FAT_BINARY default still overwrites SAGE_ATLAS_ARCH when it is set.

 SAGE_FAT_BINARY is not only used for atlas, but also for (according to
 grep in the sage-5.4 sources) : ecm-6.3.p8 libm4ri-20120613 mpir-2.4.0.p6
 polybori-0.8.2 r-2.14.0.p6 hence one may want to take advantage of it and
 be more precise by setting the SAGE_ATLAS_ARCH variable.

 By the way, it is interesting to see that, when SAGE_FAT_BINARY=='yes' in
 sage-5.4, libm4ri-20120613 explicitely disables SSE2 set of instructions
 and atlas-3.8.4.p1 explicitely enables it.

 Also, in the #10508 package, configure_base() method adds 3DNow set of
 instructions to some Intel architecture, which seems not to know it:
