Thanks, Matt. It would be good if we could get this into master a little
bit earlier since I'd like to send out instructions to the workshop
participants ahead of time so that they can build PETSc and PFLOTRAN
before they get there. But I guess I could just give instructions to
update the particular commit that has the change if I need to.
Thanks,
Richard

This has been merged to next. If it passes a two days of builds, we can
merge it to master. Is that enough time?

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which
their experiments lead.
