[Steve M. Robbins]

Hi,

Thanks all.  Yes, I downloaded using git (I thought that was the
only option at this point).

While I don't think it has been done yet, it should be possible to create a second tar ball of the data, and that will either need to be extracted into a specific location in the source code, or an environment variable will need to be specified to it's path.

I have enabled testing and examples and FFTW, so that is what I saw
downloading.  Since Matt says the release tarballs will contain the data,
that won't be a problem.  

I'd like to use the system FFTW, but last time I tried there were
segfaults [1].  That was with 4.1.0; I should try again.  If it turns
out we need to use embedded FFTW, it would be convenient if I could
run "make download-all", then regenerate a tar ball with everything
included.

Incidentally, while the library builds, many of the tests fail
or segfault.  This has been the case ever since Debian switched
to gcc 4.7 [2].  Anyone have success with this compiler?
