Didn't work. I end up with a borked configure:

checking build system type... i486-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... i486-pc-linux-gnu
loading site script './config.site'
loading build-specific script './config.site'
./configure: line 3626: syntax error near unexpected token `blas'
./configure: line 3626: `  withval=$with_blas; R_ARG_USE(blas)'
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 2


Kurt: I think you once or twice explain to me what I need to do here but I
must have forgotten.  I tried autoreconf as well as aclocal; automake;
autoconf but no luck.  Any hints?
