Comment(by zimmerma):

 > thanks Dima for giving the instructions on how to test DGEEV. I'll give
 it a try.

 on a 64-bit Core 2 I get:
 {{{
 tarte% ./a.out < inp.txt
  DGEEV Example Program Results

  Eigenvalue( 1) =  1.77245385090551588191940000000000000E+00

  Eigenvector( 1)
   8.7095E-01
   4.9138E-01

  Eigenvalue( 2) = -1.77245385090551588191940000000000000E+00

  Eigenvector( 2)
  -8.7095E-01
   4.9138E-01
 }}}
 On Dave machine I get:
 {{{
 zimme...@hawk:~$ ./a.out < inp.txt
  DGEEV Example Program Results

  Eigenvalue( 1) =  1.77245385090551588191940000000000000E+00

  Eigenvector( 1)
   8.7095E-01
   4.9138E-01

  Eigenvalue( 2) = -1.77245385090551610396400000000000000E+00

  Eigenvector( 2)
  -8.7095E-01
   4.9138E-01
 }}}
 The second eigenvalue differs. Now we have to investigate inside the DGEEV
 call.
 If it performs only additions, subtractions, multiplications, divisions
 and square
 roots, there should be no difference according to IEEE 754 (unless
 different formats are used).
