libhdf5-mpi-dev depends on libhdf5-mpich2-dev on architectures where
openmpi is not a suitable option. It uses mpi-default-dev to select the
MPI solution for the platform in question.
To support the hdf5 model for netcdf, we also need to extensively patch
the build system to build the MPI variants with a different SONAME,
netcdf.settings & pkg-config files, nc-config executable, etc.
