Please keep CC to the list.
There are known cases when a recent gcc miscompiles LAPACK/BLAS code.
If you linked the atlas libraries dynamically, you can overwrite the default
libraries using LD_PRELOAD trick:
LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/good/libraries/libname.so octave
E.g. using Intel MKL library:
LD_PRELOAD=/opt/intel/mkl/9.0/lib/em64t/libmkl.so octave

Dmitri.
