| It looks like the bug manifests itself with lapack-3.2 rather than
| lapack-3.1.1.
| 
| I have noticed similar behavior with octave-3.0.5, but I haven't had a chance to rebuild stUff again with various 'lapack' versions (3.1.1, 3.2)
| and various 'atlas' versions (3.8.2, 3.8.3) in order to exactly tell which
| version of what causes the bug to show up.
| 
| Though it looks like the bug is in 'lapack'/'atlas', it may also be that,
| 
| say, 'lapack' interface has changed, but 'octave' is unaware of this.

What about lapack 3.2.1?  Does that also show the problem for you?
I'm using the Debian package for 3.2.1 and I don't see the problem.
