On the other hand, when building from scratch on mark2, while ATLAS seems
to build okay, the R build fails:

Yes, I think that was the problem I got. Strange, on a 64-bit SPARC build
I was able to get Sage to build completely. I'm not sure if I used that
ATLAS package, or just made the libraries manually.
Without creating the shared libraries, Linbox will not link - complains
ATLAS is missing. Inspect of the linbox log file shows it thinks the ATLAS
libraries are 32-bit. I need to check that, as potentially linbox is
mistaken.
It's hard to know if this is a Linbox, ATLAS or R problem. The R manual
(http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.pdf) might have something
on this.
Adding an spkg-check file to Linbox might be useful, as we could test the
ATLAS library with Linbox. It does have a test suite, but since there is
no spkg-check file, it never gets executed.
I created ticket some time back to fix the lack of a test suite in linbox
- #9613. I'll create one for that today. It should be easy to review and
might help debug this. If linbox passes tests on 64-bit with the ATLAS
library, I would tend to suspect R is at fault. Conversely if tests fail,
I would tend to suspect ATLAS.
