I apologize if this was sent twice, but thunderbird decided to lose 
contact with my server and crashed.  Anyway...

My adm64 build system did not contain libatlas-base-dev, so I think 
things are fine on the 64bit side.  My 64bit intrepid box has "BLAS_LIBS 
= -lblas" in /etc/R/Makeconf.  So unless issues arise with interpid1 vs 
interpid0 package names, I won't need to update.
