Actually, I would advise using only 3.8.2. Previous versions had bugs
for some core routines used by numpy (at least 3.8.0 did). I am a bit
surprised that a 64 bits-built atlas would be runnable at all in a 32
bits binary - I would expect the link phase to fail if two different
object formats are linked together.
