Well I think it is insane in 2012 that we all need to stare at the exact same
ASCII strings with the exact same placement (each of you thinks is wrong) when
we develop shared code, so please teach me how. Can this be done through some
bridge that uses the current hg PETSc repository?
Unfortunately the CPP crap in PETSc messes things up a bit, curse that CPP
wish we could eliminate it all. And yes CPP is C preprocessor not C++.
