Thanks again. One thing I did partially revert after our conversation
on IRC the other day was the separate build-* targets for each MPI
flavor - having those available individually is a substantial time-saver
when working on bugs related to the MPI implementations and how they
interact with each other, and unfortunately that's very much an ongoing
issue. Using your single target for configuration makes each one of the
build-* targets much shorter, so I think it's a good balance between
readability and maintainer convenience.
I'll commit my working copy after testing these last changes. The
packages needs a rebuild soon no matter what, due to package name
transitions for both mpich and lam-mpi; I hope we'll be able to get it
uploaded early this week.
