Gilles --

Do you know if anyone is actually cross compiling?  I agree that this is in the 
"nice to have" category, but it is costing Brian time -- if no one is using 
this functionality, it's not worth the time.  If people are using this 
functionality, then it's potentially worth the time.

Brian,

My 0.02 US$

Script based wrapper compilers are very useful when cross compiling,
so ideally, they should be maintained.

Cheers,

Gilles

Does anyone still use the script based wrapper compilers?  I have been working 
on fixing a number of static library compile issues caused by us historically 
not having been great about tracking library dependencies and the 
OMPI/PMIx/PRRTE split.  Part of this is some fairly significant modifications 
to the wrapper compilers (here's the PMIx version: 
https://github.com/openpmix/openpmix/commit/e15de4b52f2d331297bbca31beb54b5a377557bc).
  It would be easiest to just remove the script based wrapper compilers, but 
I'll update them if someone uses them.

Thanks,

Brian
