Since i couldn't join todays meeting, here are some comments on the outcome.

Regarding the suggested foss/2017a, OpenMPI 2.0.1 is way better than
1.10 in my opinion. Esp since i've seen cases of 1.10.3 failing to
actually start... probably a weird corner case, but it's repeatable.

FFTW 3.3.5 (at least for this toolchain) should be compiled with
--enable-sse2 --enable-avx --enable-avx2
and preferably with --enable-avx512 too.

3.3.5 built that way is safe to run on anything from sse2-only and upwards.
And 6.2(3) is supposed to be able to build it that way even on sse2-only
systems.
