Confirmed.
atlas fails to build from source on i386. See http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16970147/buildlog_ubuntu-intrepid-i386.atlas_3.6.0-21.5ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz. Therefore you get the old 3.6.0-21.1ubuntu3 libatlas-base-dev version, which does not depend on libgfortran3.

On amd64 atlas was correctly build and on amd64 libatlas-base-dev correctly depends on libgfortran3. So when the FTBFS on i386 is fixed, the dependency issue will be solved.
