I currently don't know whether the new (''Python'' install script) ATLAS
spkg from #10226 supports `SAGE_FAT_BINARY` as desired, but for the
record:
* `uname -p` isn't portable (it may return "`unknown`" even on Linuces),
one should use `uname -m` instead.
* Rather than having (btw. incomplete)
{{{
#!sh
if [ ... -o ... -o ... -o ... ]; then ...
}}}
one should use
{{{
#!sh
case "`uname -m`" in
i[3456]86|i86pc)
...
;;
amd64|x86_64)
...
;;
ia64) # Itanium
...
;;
# etc.
esac
}}}
instead, which is not only more readable, but also more robust (and
portable w.r.t. broken / buggy `test` commands).
