 > IIRC FFLAS-FFPACK configure scripts is very sensitive to quoting and
 spaces and it was a nightmare to make it accept multiple libraries to be
 linked separated by spaces.

 In both case the variable is only defined on cygwin/darwin and we rely on
 autodetection in other cases. I guess we could throw the autodetection
 throw the window and put the stuff in every case. In fact if we want to be
 able to use something else than ATLAS in the future it is prudent to do
 so. So I will throw the particular cases out. If there is a strong case to
 still keep something for cygwin I am all hears.
