I use Debian testing, and that same version works fine there.

This could be related to the recent Atlas / Blas change in
unstable. CCing Sylvestre just in case. Maybe we take this off-line
and compare blas + atlas package versions?

Can you tell me which versions of blas and lapack (and atlas if
relevant) you are using ?  Both libraries and developments packages,

Sure, this is with:
