Comment(by leif):

 As a final change, could we clarify the ATLAS/CBLAS issue in
 {{{SPKG.txt}}}, i.e.
  * Dependencies: '''None''' - GSL does currently '''not''' depend on any
 other Sage package (though ATLAS is currently listed in
 {{{spkg/standard/deps}}}
  * Add a ''"Special Update/Build Instructions"'' section that mentions
 that GSL could '''in principle''' use ATLAS's CBLAS implementation rather
 than the one shipped with GSL (but so far never did in Sage).

 Currently building Sage 4.5.1 with GSL 1.14 from scratch...

 (I've already tested the spkg with 4.5 "final" on two machines, but only
 by forcing installation of the new package. This btw discovered even more
 flaws in the doctesting "frame"work regarding parallel testing and
 timeouts on the slower machine...)
