I use numeric and scipy, and have been trying for a long time to improve the 
ebuilds to use blas/lapack/atlas. I submitted an ebuild for numeric six 
months ago (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81520), but it has 
languished in buzilla because it is not clear how to deal with ATLAS (my 
atlas USE flag was rejected). How should ATLAS dependencies be handled in the 
new infrastructure?
