The Fortran routines here were extracted from LAPACK 3.1.0, then
3.1.1, 3.4.1, 3.4.2, 3.5.0, 3.6.0, 3.6.1, 3.7.0, 3.7.1.
(Sources from http://www.netlib.org/lapack and mirrors).

dlapack.f contains support routines for `real' LAPACK calls.  
cmplx.f contains support routines for LAPACK calls from complex
arithmetic routines, that are only used if COMPLEX*16 is supported by
the Fortran compiler and compatible with the Rcomplex type.
Neither will be compiled if an external LAPACK is used.

We have tried to avoid including any single-precision routines.


Preparation
-----------

dlapack.f and cmplx.f were created at the top level in the LAPACK
3.7.1 sources by copying {dble,cmplx}.txt there and running

dir.create('dble')
foo <- scan('dble.txt', "")
file.copy(file.path("SRC", foo), 'dble')
file.copy(file.path("INSTALL", 'ilaver.f'), 'dble')
system('cpp SRC/iparam2stage.F > dble/iparam2stage.f')
system("cat dble/* > dlapack.f")

dir.create('cmplx')
foo <- scan('cmplx.txt', "")
file.copy(file.path("SRC", foo), 'cmplx')
system("cat cmplx/* > cmplx.f")

If you update the LAPACK version, you need to copy over the LICENSE
file and update it in doc/COPYRIGHTS.  And if you patch the sources,
*DO* mention it here and add the patch to R.patch.

New LAPACK versions (even point releases) often add new auxiliary
routines, and these can be hard to track down.  We found it helpful to
compare the outputs of

nm -g dlapack.o | grep ' T ' | cut -b20-
nm -g dlapack.o | grep ' U ' | cut -b20-

before and after upating (ditto for cmplx.o).  (This may need
adjusting for your platform's nm.)
