A while ago there was some request for supporting the ATLAS BLAS libraries
on Windows. I have finally succeeded in building the ATLAS libraries, and
made the necessary changes to the Makefiles. This will be available
in R-patched as from tomorrow's snapshot: see src/gnuwin32/INSTALL for
how to use it.
You will need to build an ATLAS library for your precise chip. This can
be a frustrating experience. On my laptop (mobile PII) it took about an
hour. On my desktop (dual 1GHz PIII) the first attempt failed after 2
hours and the second succeeded after four. Because of the extreme chip
dependence, there is no way that we distribute ATLAS-equipped binaries.
