 ROFL, with `SAGE_ATLAS_ARCH="AMD64K10h,SSE3,SSE2,SSE1,3DNow"` (which
 involves self-tuning) it took
 {{{
 real    36m15.153s
 user    31m23.290s
 sys     5m56.960s
 Successfully installed atlas-3.10.0
 }}}

 Also a bit strange is that the timing for `ptestlong` (all for Sage
 5.2.rc0, GCC 4.4.3) was

   `base` < `fast` < `AMD64K10h`

 (i.e., fastest with `SAGE_ATLAS_ARCH=base`), although I think at least
 during the last run the machine was partially loaded with other stuff as
 well, and clearly `ptestlong` isn't very appropriate to benchmark ATLAS
 performance... ;-)

 [Not going to use the ATLAS tools for comparison right now, perhaps
 later...]
