I understand that bug as:
if mpich2 or openmpi don't do the right thing when calling
mpif77/mpif90, then symlinks are needed.
Is there a proof that either of them doesn't do the right thing?
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to fix them to do the right thing?
(Those are honest questions -- I don't know anything about fortran)
