Gilles -- Do you know if anyone is actually cross compiling? I agree that this is in the "nice to have" category, but it is costing Brian time -- if no one is using this functionality, it's not worth the time. If people are using this functionality, then it's potentially worth the time.

I have been working on fixing a number of static library compile issues caused by us historically not having been great about tracking library dependencies and the OMPI/PMIx/PRRTE split. Part of this is some fairly significant modifications to the wrapper compilers (here's the PMIx version: https://github.com/openpmix/openpmix/commit/e15de4b52f2d331297bbca31beb54b5a377557bc). It would be easiest to just remove the script based wrapper compilers, but I'll update them if someone uses them. Thanks, Brian
