I'm tempted to agree.  (Which probably means everyone else is way
ahead of me; they just talked me into making --enable-second a default
option, years after I wrote it.)

My last reservation: is there any performance penalty?  The ghosted
vectors should be more scalable than serial vectors on N processors,
but they've got overhead that may cost CPU time on 2-4 processors.
When you were regression testing those residuals, did you happen to
take any timing data?
