It appears that I did not make this very clear.
I understand what happened, and I figured it out by reading through 
config.log
and configure.  That is how I discovered that the message at the end of
the output from ./configure which said:
CHOLMOD library not found
really meant that CHOLMOD library was found, but BLAS library was
missing.

This is not a big deal. I just thought that a clearer message might be
helpful.

The more important problem on Fedora 9 (x86) is that the configure.in 
which is
generated when using the default branch leads to ./configure crashing on 
the same
system that works correctly using the release-3-0-x branch.  Do you want
any more documentation of this?  If so, please tell me what you need. 
You may
not want to worry about this right now.  I do not feel that Fedora 9 is 
really
ready for routine use anyhow.  I was just doing testing.
