Agreed. We gotta draw the line somewhere... Can you imagine how far down the
rabbit hole we would go if to avoid const_cast we changed the underlying c
libraries?
Now, though the conundrum. Unless we add -Wall to the libmesh opt flags your
changes will atrophy, but I don't want thousands of lines of warnings from
contrib...
Perhaps we need
libmesh_only_CXXFLAGS += -Wall ...
??

I'd rather not. If we want to bug and send a patch to the maintainers
of those packages, that's one thing, but let's not fork their code.
