When I set

  force_clapack=0

then the output of lu.py is

Everything is correct up to round-off errors. So, check again that ATLAS 
is not being used. For the record, with force_lapack=1 the results are 
incorrect.

As for a possible Atlas bug, I haven't created a simple C program that
would demonstrate the bug and is necessary to file a bug report to Atlas
people. Any takers?
