File a feature request in bugzilla against fftw.

mpi support hasn't been put in, because compiling even fftw is a mess:
four different flavors are built, consisting of single, double, long
double and quadruple precision.

Plugging in the mpi versions will require 3x4 = 12 separate compiles.
Also, if the flavors are put in separate subpackages, it'll also mean 8
more subpackages...
