I know that [with few exception] nobody cares about our Windows
support, but we finally have a working Open MPI software stack there
and this approach will definitively break our "Unix like"
friendliness on Windows.
As a temporary solution and until we can figure out how many people
use mpicc (and friends) on Windows, I suggest we keep around the old
wrapper compilers, together with the new shell scripts.
Thanks,
george.
