   * Added a configure option to detect macports gcc as gcc
   * Some string length extensions for better flag handling
ATLAS 3.9.75 released 05/17/12, changes from 3.9.74:
   * add --force-tids= flag to configure to allow manual override of thread
     affinity IDs (so you can ignore virtual processors)

   * First release from github basefiles
   * Affinity now auto-probed for instead of assumed (tested only Linux).

     - On PPC, dynamic & log2 are faster with P=32
   * Several threading-related probes added to ATLAS/tune/threads
   * Added -m64/-m32 to flags on POWER7 and POWER6
   * Addition of AtomicCount routines for later threading use.
     -> just x86 & mutex presently, can do for PPC,SPARC,MIPS as well.

     to sizeof(TYPE) (and no greater), in order to get real worst-case 
     performance for vector codes.
   * Fixed L2 timers so they allow complex arrays to be aligned to underlying
     type size, rather than full complex size

   * Fixed bug in ATL_sgemvN_8x4_sse.c where $Y$ was read when BETA=0
   * Changed it so generated Makefiles for mvN, mvT, r1, r2 kerenls use GOODGCC
     if 'gcc' is specified (so they inherit flags like -pg, -m64, etc).
   * Added VSX GER from Mike Kistler to kernels & Power7 arch defs

ATLAS 3.9.26 released 10/18/10, changes from 3.9.25:
   * Much improved GEMV & GER performance for x86-64:
     + Addition of SSE/x86-64 GER/GEMV generators
     + Complete rewrite of GEMV tuning infrastructure
     + Change to GER kernel API to minimize parameter passing
     + Arch defaults for Core264SSE3 & AMD64K10h64SSE3 updated
   * ANSI C code generators for MVT, MVN, R1 and R2.
     + should improve non-x86/x86-64 performance
   * Started rewrite of all L2BLAS:
     + GEMVT, GEMVN, GER, SYR, SYR2, HER, HER2 built from optimized kernels
     - TRMV, TRSV, SYMV, HEMV just call reference implementation
   * Bug fixes:
     + Fixed kernel testers & timers to correctly handle alignments,
       particularly ALIGNX2A.
   * Basic support for POWER7
     + VSX detection
     + VSX GEMM, GEMVN & GEMVT kernels provided by Mike Kistler of IBM
     + Arch defs
   * Fixed it so GEMM kernel files use $(GOODGCC) instead of flat gcc
     if 'gcc' is specified (so they inherit flags like -pg, -m64, etc).
ATLAS 3.9.25 released 06/04/10, changes from 3.9.24:
   * Fixed bug causing x_tfindCE/txover to use CPU rather than WALL time
   * Got rid of test -e in Makefiles, since Solaris /bin/sh disallows
   * Fixed lack of return statement in lanbsrch's findNBByN().
   * Hid bug in ATL_thrdecompMM_rMNK exposed by p=128 by not calling when 
     K is small
   * Fixed bug in r[1,2]ksearch that prevented arch defs from working
   * Fixed typos when setting self affinity in threading (SunOS)
   * Fixed R1SUMM/R1K.sum error in ArchNew target for creating arch defs 
   * Added R2K.sum files to archdef Makefile, and to Core264 & k10h64 arch defs.
   * Added configure support for UltraSPARC T2
     + Turned off affinity for T2, where it decreases parallel performance
   * Added architectural defaults for UST264 & UST232
   * Fixed errors in GER2 handling
   * Fixed repeated GER/GER2 symbols that prevented shared lib build
ATLAS 3.9.24 released 04/21/10, changes from 3.9.23:
   * Should see a roughly doubling in performance of L2's SYR2/HER2
   * Addition of new BLAS2.5-like kernel, GER2 (rank-2 update)
     - A = alpha*x*y + beta*w*z + A
   * Native ATLAS support for xGELS and all subsidiary routines, including
     C and Fortran interfaces for GELS 
     - Internal routs not yet exposed in C/F77 iface include:
       + ORM[[QL,QR,LQ,RQ]  -> UNM* called ORM for complex
       + GE[QL,QR,LQ,RQ]2 (unblocked QR)
       + GE[QL,QR,LQ,RQ]R (recursive QR)
       + LADIV, LAPY2, LAPY3
       + LARFB, LARFT (F77 ifaces, but no C ifaces)
       + LARF, LARFG, LARFP
       + LASCL (not supported for banded matrices)
     - Of these, should definitely expose UNM/ORM at iface level
   * Addition of [D,S]LAMCH for both C & F77 interfaces
   * Fixed slvtst (LU & QR) to use norm of original A, not factored matrix
     in computing solve residual
   * Chad fixed a bug in the SSE generator in type casting for stores
   * Changed it so unknown LAPACK routs are given ATLAS's NB for NB, 
     rather than 1
   * Fixed bug in r1hgen.c where Level 1 & 2 blocking were hugely inflated
     (leading to no effective blocking)
   * Updated archinfo_linux to recognize "PPC970MP" as a G5
ATLAS 3.9.23 released 02/07/10, changes from 3.9.22:
   * Fixed dependency error in ATLAS/makes/Make.mmtune
   * Improved mmflagsearch, so we now have O(N) greedy search as default
     -> if you pass -f gcc, will gen most opt-related gcc flags in gccflags.txt
   * Improved flags used on PowerPC G4 & G5
   * Updated some architectural defaults:
     - Corei764SSE3, PPCG564AltiVec, PPCG4AltiVec, MIPSICE964
ATLAS 3.9.22 released 02/05/10, changes from 3.9.21
   * Fixed long-standing bug in cleanup code generation -- this bug has been
     in package since we've generated cleanup, and it causes malformed ifs
     that select cleanup code; most commonly it creates uncompilable code,
     but it could also result in using a suboptimal cleanup kernel.
   * Fixed another long-standing bug in cleanup code generation, this
     one involving not building enough fixed=1 clean cases if there are
     higher imult cleanup cases in the Q.  This resulted in errors in
     cleanup answers.
   * Complete rewrite of search for finding best generated kernel to use
     new test/time infrastructure.  See ATLAS/tune/blas/gemm/gmmsearch for
     new search.  Cleanup and no-copy still uses old search, which is renamed
     ATLAS/tune/blas/gemm/mmcuncpsearch.c.  New search driver is mmsearch.c
   * Chad fixed several bugs in the SSE generator relating to type casting
   * Fixed genparse's DupString to handle NULL pointers
   * Fixed erroneous include of atlas_misc.h in clapack.h
   * Added a compiler flag search to ease job of finding good flags.
     - ATLAS/tune/blas/gemm/mmflagsearch.c
   * Arch def changes:
     - Updated G4 defs -- reduced perf due to gcc PPC performance bug
     - Corei7464SSE3: negated ?MMRES.sum mflop values
     - AMD64K10h64SSE3 : updated to new style
     - Core264SSE3 : updated to new style
   * Some PowerPC-specific fixes:
     - Fixed it so configure can autodetect clock speed on G4/Linux
     - Fixed it so ATLAS always assumes gnu gcc altivec handling on PowerPC
     - Renamed vector registers to numbers just like GPRs (fixes Linux/PPC 
       assembly, and related altivec probe)
ATLAS 3.9.21 released 01/11/10, changes from 3.9.20
   * Fixed error in threaded SYMM, where recursion had bad pointer
   * Created ability to tune threaded/serial crossover points, see
        ATLAS/tune/blas/gemm/txover.c
   * Improved CacheEdge detection
   * Fixed bug in configure for --shared on archs w/o f77 compiler
   * Updated lanbtst to work wt new QR naming scheme, and to compile
     correctly for lanbtime (was not using lapack's ILAENV in this case)
ATLAS 3.9.20 released 12/21/09, changes from 3.9.19
   * Fixed bug in call to memcpy by casting all MulBySize to size_t
   * Fixed several ilaenv-related errors, including QR always using serial parms
   * Made it so ORMQR and UNMQR variants use QR's tuned NB
   * Fixed error in complex gemoveT & gemoveC (src/auxil)
   * Made gemoveT & C TLB-aware
   * Added src/auxil/ATL_sqtrans to do TLB-aware in-place square transpose
   * If M==N, then RQ & LQ (row-major) do in-place transpose and call
     QL or QR (column-major).  This gives ~10% performance improvement.
   * Added F77 interface for xLARFT and xLARFB
ATLAS 3.9.19 released 12/08/09, changes from 3.9.18
   * Got rid of files in C2F now being provided natively by ATLAS:
     - larft, geqrf, geqlf, gerqf, gelqf, geqrf,
   * Fixed duplication of unmqr_wrk symbols
   * Removed use of SAFMIN global variable in larfb/larfg
ATLAS 3.9.18 released 12/05/09, changes from 3.9.17
   * Found & fixed error in threaded GEMM
   * Fixed bug where lanbtst_pt didn't set NB
   * Modified mmksearch_sse.c to try gcc & sse flags if native compiler
     can't handle the generated files.
   * Rewrote LAPACK/QR NB tuning
     - now uses ATLAS/tune/lapack/lanbsrch rather than bin/lanbtst (faster)
     - Now done by default
   * Numerous errors fixed involving architecture default timing (all levels)
   * Modified atlas_install to keep track of times for every part of install,
     so we can see where time is spent
   * Architectural default related changes:
     - Fixed ArchNew target in building arch defs to negate .sum files
     - Core264SSE & AMD64K10h64SSE needed negative values in .sum files
     - Updated Core264SSE, AMD64K10h64SSE, HAMMER64SSE3 to get new threaded
       lapack, and full .sum support
ATLAS 3.9.17 released 11/15/09, changes from 3.9.16
   * Chad's SSE GEMM generator now works for CGEMM
     - Provides faster (CGEMM) arch defs for Core264SSE3
   * Addition of householder factorizations (mostly written by Siju Samuel):
     - F77 & C interface, C supports row/col- major
     - GEQRF GEQLF GERQF GELQF
     - tester is qrtst.c in ATLAS/bin/
     - Retuned LAPACK's QR NB arch defs for AMD64K10h64SSE3 & Core264SSE3
   * Fixed seg fault in ummsearch caused by mmksearch_sse failure
   * Rewrote Write[MM,MV,R1]File to get around gcc bug
   * Fixed bugs in ATLAS/src/auxil/[ge,tr]collapse
   * Fixed bug in ATLAS/tune/blas/ger/CASES/ATL_zgerk_1x4_sse3.c
   * Renamed xatlas_install -> xatlas_build, to get around Windows 7 
     "security-through-stupidity" misfeature

ATLAS 3.9.15 released 10/10/09, changes from 3.9.14
   * Addition of Chad Zalkin's SSE GEMM generator to ATLAS
   * Support for external searches and use of standard matmul search routs in:
     - include/atlas_mmparse.h
     - include/atlas_mmtesttime.h
   * Numerous search changes to incorporate above in ATLAS matmul install
     - Changed matmul install to be much quieter
ATLAS 3.9.14 released 08/19/09 (bugfix release), changes from 3.9.13
   * Fixed complex indexing errors in ATL_ger.c & ATL_zgerk_1x4_sse3.c
   * Fixed error in config.c where using LAPACK caused OpenMP to be built
   * Made it so C2F LAPACK interface only built if F77 LAPACK is provided
   * Basic --shared install now works (tested Linux build only)
ATLAS 3.9.13 released 08/17/09 (bugfix release), changes from 3.9.12
   * Fixed ATL_smm14x1x84_sseCU.c so it won't be used when NB > 84
     - fixed AMD64 arch def not to use it
   * Fixed 1-character memory overwrite in atlas_genparse.h's DupString
   * Added prototype to r1ktest.c
   * 3.9.12 showed version of 3.9.11; this version shows correct 3.9.13
ATLAS 3.9.12 released 08/06/09, changes from 3.9.11
   * Complete rewrite of GER, SYR/HER and SYR2/HER2:
     - New tuning mechinism tunes GER for in-L1, in-L2, and out-of-cache
       * Call ATL_<pre>ger_L1 if data known to be in L1 cache
       * Call ATL_<pre>ger_L2 if data known to be in L2 cache
     - Most architectures now lack GER arch defs
       * Provided GER archdefs 64-bit K10h and Core2
     - atlas_devel not yet updated
   * Relatively untested standard timing/tester code available for all
     tuned kernels (GER fairly well tested)
     - atlas_[mv,r1,mm]parse.h reads standard input/output files
     - atlas_[mv,r1,mm]testtime.h provides tester/timer calls for kernels
   * Can compile both lapack 3.2 and 3.1 with --with-netlib-lapack-tarfile
     - Removed support for other ways of building lapack
     - atlas_install mostly updated
   * Bug fixes
     - Fixed BETA=0 SCAL NaN-propogation bug (no more call to ATL_set)
     - Fixed C/Z GEMM JITcp bug where C was read when BETA=0
     - Fixed threaded LAPACK calling serial ilaenv  (QR speedup)
ATLAS 3.9.11 released 04/07/09, changes from 3.9.10
   * Added flags -Si [omp,antthr] 0/1/2 to allow ease of building ATLAS
     with alternative threading implementations
   * Fixed prototypes in atlas_f77wrap.h so that all thread interfaces
     are properly prototyped when they are selected by the above flags
   * Fixed missing TRMM prototype in atlas_tlvl3.h that caused STRSM
     to fail tests in xsl3blastst_pt
ATLAS 3.9.10 released 03/11/09, changes from 3.9.9
   * Rewrote tgemm's combine routine to work on arbitrary partitionings 
     combined in arbitrary orders (necessary for non-power-of-2 processors)
     - Restricted fix for SYRK (not general, as it isn't needed yet)
   * Fixed bug in EnforceNonPwr2LO caused by failure to rename moved
     structure in the Cinfp array
   * Fixed makefile problem that caused ATLAS to re-archive the L3BLAS for
     every tester compile
   * On windows, added -lkernel32 to LIBS macro to enable shared lib build
ATLAS 3.9.9 released 02/26/09, changes from 3.9.8
   * Fixed bug in Xtsyrk's ATL_tsyrkdecomp_K, both on when the algorithm
     is used, and correctness for when K is not large enough to give all
     processors NB of work.
   * Fixed bug in lanbtst, where single precision (S/C) used double values
     rather than single values when determining workspace requirements
   * Changed atlas_install to have a final library build phase
     - Was not rebuilding lib after post-build tuning
       -> Caused lapack and poss other files to be untuned unless user rebuilds
          by invoking tester/timer for each subpiece
       -> Caused dynamic libs to be built from badly tuned libs
   * Added missing lapack arch defs for Corei764 and MIPSICE9
ATLAS 3.9.8 released 02/23/09, changes from 3.9.7
   * Fixed bug in ATL_Xtgemm where ATL_thrdecompMM failed to return the
     number of processors on non-power-of-2 processor systems
   * Fixed bug in ATL_tsyrk where I was calling the K-splitting routine
     when the required workspace was large, rather than when it was small.
   * Fixed analagous problem in ATL_tsyrk as the 3.9.7 did for ATL_tgemm;
     however, tsyrk bug could not have been exercised by current decomposition.
   * Introduced some fixes & workarounds for SiCortex/MIPSICE9:
     - Changed default MIPSICE9 compiler back to gcc, since pathcc produces
       bad ATL_tsyrk when optimization is above -O1 (confirmed compiler error)
   * Added dependence on atlas_ptalias3.h in cblas interface Makefile.
ATLAS 3.9.7 released 02/20/09, changes from 3.9.6:
   * Fixed bug in ATL_tgemm that caused seg faults for some small-M tGEMMs
   * Added architectural defaults for K7323DNow (Athlon "classic")
ATLAS 3.9.6 released 02/01/09, Changes from 3.9.5:
   * Made it so LAPACK is tuned specifically for threading as well as for serial
     - Added threaded lapack arch defs for:
       + Core264SSE3, P4E64SSE3, Corei764SSE3
   * Made it so LAPACK NB-tuning is mu/nu aware
   * MIPSICE9 (sicortex) improvements:
     - added pathcc arch defs
     - updated gcc arch defs to better values
     --> Still getting errors on this platform
   * Some bug fixes:
     - Detect model 29 as Core2
     - Rewrote ptFlushAreasByCL to use new thread framework
     - Fixed handling of non-power-of-2 number of threads
     - Better dependencies for building ilaenv
ATLAS 3.9.5 released 12/11/08, Changes from 3.9.4:
   * Complete rewrite of ATLAS threading system:
     - Now supports native windows threads in addition to pthreads
     - Use of master-last and affinity increases threaded performance, with
       an advantage that grows with P (almost no advantage for P=2, but for
       instance LU is more than 60% faster asymptotically on a P=8 Core2)
       + OS X and FreeBSD don't support processor affinity, and so their
         performance is still bad
     - Cacheedge specifically tuned for threading (another 5%)
   * Changed emit_buildinfo so that it replaces all control characters with
     spaces (prevents errors under windows).
   * Added dependency info for ATL_ilaenv so that it is recompiled once 
     lapack tuning is complete
   * Fixed error in configure where it issues commands in wrong directory
     when the user builds lapack directly from a tarfile
   * Fixed typos in config.c where I used 'comp' rather than 'comps'.
   * Added mmtime_pt.c, which can allow us to find kernels that do well
     in parallel operation.
   * Various small configure fixes for windows
ATLAS 3.9.4 released 09/06/08, Changes from 3.9.3:
   * Improved Windows/cygwin configure with addition of archinfo_win.c
   * Added basic support for Windows/interix
     - Did not pursue much due to widespread seg fault in gcc, hundreds of
       hard-to-get "hot fixes", and ancient gnu tools that can't assemble SSE3
   * Removed special "no-need-to-copy" cases from ATLmm_JIK/IJK.c, since they
     occasionally seem to cause large performance drops.
   * Changed it so JIK matmul always called for rank-K update, in order to
     reduce access costs on C.
   * Fixed several errors in ATLAS's ILAENV.
   * Fixed several errors in configure
   * Fixed error when -Ss lasrc is given as relative rather than absolute path
   * Added BETA support for auto-building shared/dynamic libraries when the
     user passes --shared to configure (no need to explicitly set compiler
     flags [eg., -fPIC] for any of the known compilers):
     - Not fully tested, but appears to work for Windows, OS X and Linux
     - Now referenced in make install, but present process is crude
     - with --nof77, get clapack reather than lapack; eventually probably want
       a logical link of lapack
ATLAS 3.9.3 released 08/13/08, Changes from 3.9.2:
   * Added much more extensive testing capability:
     - make full_test  /  make scope_full_test
       + Added Antoine's testing scripts to ATLAS.  Just do a "make full_test"
         to run them ("make full_test_nh" to use nohup for remove connection).
     - make lapack_test[a,s,f]l_[ab,sb,fb,pt] / make scope_lapack_test_?l_??
       + Runs lapack testers linked against indicated lapack & BLAS
     - See INSTALL.txt/"EXTENDED ATLAS TESTING" for further details
   * Added several missing symbols from full LAPACK build
   * Fixed it so ?lamch are compiled wt no optimization.
   * Added ATLAS/src/blas/f77reference for ease of testing.  Made it so by
     default Make.inc's FBLASlib and BLASlib macros are set to this lib.
   * Fixed errors in arch default creation for LAPACK defaults
   * Changed test in LAPACK build Makefile to get around solaris shell 
     incompatibility
   * Added architectural defaults for LAPACK QR tuning for:
     - AMD64K10h32SSE3 (first time 32-bit archdefs are given for this arch)
     - AMD64K10h64SSE3
     - PPCG564AltiVec
     - Core232SSE3
     - HAMMER64SSE3
ATLAS 3.9.2 released 08/09/08, Changes from 3.9.1:
   * Improved Core2 performance, particularly for 32 bit and/or single precision
   * Changed Core2Duo arch name to Core2, since we use this description for
     the entire Core2 family (including Xeon, Core2Quad, etc).
   * Bug fixes:
     - Fixed cycle of dependencies in L1 Makefiles causing an endless stack
       of make processes (wt assoc hang) to spawn when tuning the L1 BLAS
     - Fixed compile probs for archs w/o cacheline flush in assembly
     - Fixed error in configure caused by change in CPUID usage
     - Added missing f77 wrappers for GERQF and GEQLF
     - Avoided CPP division in assembly on Solaris, due to binutils/solaris bug
ATLAS 3.9.1 released 07/22/08, Changes from 3.9.0:
   * Fixed several small bugs in ATLAS/src/auxil/ATL_ptflushcache.c
   * Fixed f77wrap ilaenv renaming errors
   * Fixed error in ATLAS/src/test/ATL_f77geqrf.c that messed up --nof77 builds
   * Fixed failure to quote MVCC, which messed up MVTUNE on some systems
   * Fixed these errataed errors:
      - http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/errata.html#trsmNB
      - http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/errata.html#mipsK
ATLAS 3.9.0 released 07/17/08, Changes from 3.8.2:
   * Added ATLAS/bin/lanbtst.c, which can be used to time lapack routines,
     as well as tune the NB returned by ILEANV
     - Ability to autotune LAPACK QR factorization performance by varying NB
       + Added QR NB choice header files to Core2Duo arch defs
   * Started producing standard C wrappers for F77LAPACK.  See:
        ATLAS/include/C_lapack.h
   * Much improved DGEMM performance for Core2Duo and AMD K10h
   * Configure improvements:
     - Added '--with-netlib-lapack-tarfile' and '-Ss lasrc' flags to configure
       so that the full F77LAPACK can be built w/o having to compile anything 
       external to ATLAS (no more fiddling with LAPACK's make.inc!)
     - Added -Si latune [0,1] to autotune LAPACK QR performance

ATLAS 3.8.3 released 02/21/09, Changes from 3.8.2:
   * Fixed bugs:
     - Numerous improvements to configure's architecture recognition
     - Fixed D/ZGEMM cleanup error on MIPS
     - Fixed TRMV tuning Makefile error
     - Fixed Makefile error preventing TRSM tuning
     - Worked around gcc's Solaris division bug
   * Backported Core2 and K10h GEMM kernels
     - Makes a *huge* perf diff on Intel boxes, slight improvement for K10h
   * Added arch defs for Corei7 (64 bit only) 
ATLAS 3.8.2 released 06/06/08, Changes from 3.8.1:
   * Fixed bugs:
     - Pervasive performance bug in GEMM, affecting all architectures
     - Occasional access of C when BETA=0
   * Configure improvements:
     - Improved freebsd architecture probe
     - Improved linux cpu throttling probe
   * Added mu=4 SSE M cleanup for extra performance
ATLAS 3.8.1 released 02/22/08, Changes from 3.8.0:
   * Fixed bug in slvtst that counted complex flops same as real
   * Fixed bug causing wrong answer for row-major gemm C=A*A' or A'A 
   * Fixed bug in configure causing Pentium-M to be IDed as CoreDuo
   * Fixed bug in tfc.c causing memory overwrite when too many samples taken
   * Improved L1 BLAS timers so they work like the rest of the package, and
     thus don't die all the time on tolerance failures
   * Improved ATLAS/tune/blas/gemm/mmsearch.c:
     - for x86, tried more registers, since smart compiler can reduce A & B
       regs to 2 (and possibly even 1)
     - Made it so search tries both load-C-at-top and load-C-at-bottom of
       M loop.  Bottom is superior for error, and ATLAS originally defaulted
       to load-C-at-top.
   * Added configure support for new K10h platform from AMD, as well as
     basic architectural defaults (no new kernels, just good search)

ATLAS 3.8.0 released 10/10/07, changes from 3.6.0:
   * Improved installation support: now works with 5-step standard install:
     - configure, build, check, time, install
     - Support for easily building 32 or 64 bit libraries
     - Support for building dynamic (shared) libraries
     - Can build in any directory
   * Added detailed installation guide (ATLAS/doc/atlas_install.pdf), 
     indicating how to build ATLAS, as well as describing how you can
     ensure that the produced libraries get adequate performance as well
     as the correct answers.
   * Improved GEMM performance on most platforms:
     - HAMMER (Opteron/Athlon-64), P4, P4E, Core2Duo, CoreDuo, MIPS,
       G5/PowerPC970, POWER4, POWER5, etc.
     - Better handling of long-thin matrices (K >> M,N) and rank-K, K<=4 shapes
     - Improved complex performance on some platforms
     - Further reduced error on some platforms 
       + ATLAS error bound always <= reference BLAS before reduction
   * More OS support:
     - OSX/x86, Solaris/x86, Linux/MIPS, modern Windows,
   * A lot of other changes, see developer ChangeLog below for further details

   * Made it so ATLAS builds on Solaris x86:
     - Had to remove all constant divides in integer expressions in assembly,
       as Sun geniuses decided to change comment character to '/'
       + \/ is supposed to work, but doesn't
     - Had to touch every x86 assembly file to change assembly comments to /**/
ATLAS 3.7.32 released 04/27/07, changes from 3.7.31:

   * Fixed bug in atlas_prefetch found by David Cournapeau.
   * Added MIPSICE9 prefetch option, d/zgemm assembly kernels and arch defaults.
     - These should work on most MIPS platforms 
     - Assembly kernels work under IRIX, but no way to get cc to do prefetch
       + could not make cc's pragma work with ATLAS's atlas_prefetch defs

     - fixed dynamic lib link for f77 interface libs
     - Updated L1 kernel testers in tune/ for function routs to call the test
       func first (so correct answer not on stack), and to check for NaN
     - Fixed it so error report genned again.
     - Fixed error causing real JITcp to copy all the time, and then fixed
       error in func ptr when this was selected.
   * Wrote special Just In Time Copy (JITcp) gemm for complex that copies A&B
     a block at a time, and calls the real kernel for complex matmul
     - Speeds up large-case z/cgemm on some platforms (5-10%)
     - Speeds up long-K case for some platforms (as much as doubles perf)
   * Fixed miscalculation of CacheEdge, where I stopped using it for large K.
     This fix reduces memory usage, and speeds up asymptotic case a bit.
ATLAS 3.7.29 released 02/28/07, changes from 3.7.28:
   * Wrote special routines (mmBPP and mmMNK) for handling small M, N and 
     large K case.  For M = N <= NB can double performance.  Presently works
     for real precisions (s,d) only.
   * Translated x87 Athlon-64 kernel to 32-bit assembly.
   * Put in special code to handle SYRK call to GEMM by calling SYRK and
     reflecting the triangular matrix.  Doubles speed, and avoid fp error
     on reflection.

     - Can specify flags to be appended to gcc in user-contributed index files
     - Can append flags to only C compilers
     - Can append flags to only C+usergcc, all+usergcc, etc.
   * Configure now recognizes gnu compilers as gnu compiler regardless of
     compiler name when looking for default flags for user-override compilers
ATLAS 3.7.26 released 01/30/07, changes from 3.7.25:
   * Added line to all assembly files to declare them as not requiring an
     executable stack for Linux (apparently, lack broke SELinux).
   * Numerous assembly fixes, particularly forced use of .text and asmdecor
     in all x86 assembly files.
   * Fixed dnrm2's to call sqrtl to avoid gcc round-down.
ATLAS 3.7.25 released 01/22/07, changes from 3.7.24:
   * Added x87 nrm2 assembly kernels to avoid gcc probs, changed old 
     gcc-compiled nrm21 kernels to use double native precision for
     accumulator (breaks dnrm2 due to gcc's spurious round-down).
   * Changed Athlon64 and Core2Duo arch defaults to use load-at-bottom gemm
     kernels, which should reduce GEMM error
   * Changed configure to error out if ran in ATLAS source directory.
   * Changed all ATLAS/doc postscript files to .pdf

     no-copy code would be used -- should help bottom of LU recursion perf
   * Changed it so all F2C probes linked by Fortran do all I/O in Fortran,
     instead of printing from C (some platforms seem to have problems
     redirecting C I/O from a Fortran-linked program).
   * Several bug fixes
   * Added config support for solaris install
ATLAS 3.7.20 released 11/11/06, changes from 3.7.19:
   * Added ability to use Cij = instead of Cij += on first iteration of loop
     in emit_mm.c:
     - Max K unrolling where this is done is set by cpp macro MAX_CASG_KU
       to avoid code bloat (always works for full unroll)
     - For muladd=1, doesn't work if K is unknown at compile-time
     - Speeds up load-at-bottom and beta=0 code
   * Added ability to prefetch C when prefA selected and doing load-at-bottom
     or beta=0.  Gives nice speedup on HammerX2, need to test other machines

       will also run under OS X
     - Added needed #define to ATLAS/src/invtst.c
     - Added fix to disambiguate int & long in f77/C interface
ATLAS 3.7.17 released 09/09/06, changes from 3.7.16:

     (for users w/o fortran compiler)
ATLAS 3.7.15 released 08/22/06, changes from 3.7.14:
   * New x87 kernel that achieves over 90% of peak for double precision
     Opteron/Athlon-64.  Gemm runs at roughly same speed as old SSE kernel,
     but LU and Cholesky actually get a speedup.  The fp stack usage
     of this kernel was suggested by the new gcc.
     - New arch defaults for HAMMER64SSE[2,3]
   * Modified ILEANV so small problems aren't told to use the full ATLAS NB.

     gnu configure
     - You now build ATLAS in an arbitrary build directory
       + /path/to/ATLAS/configure ; make build ; make test
     - Read ATLAS/INSTALL.txt for directions, everything is changed!
     - Presently, only supported OSes are Linux and FreeBSD (OSX). 
       Will be adding more in subsequent developer releases.
   * Added support for prefetch in generator, mmsearch.c, fc.c, etc.
