Configuration
-------------
+ - Configure now generates Makefiles that build in "silent make mode"
+ by default in which compile and link lines are significantly
+ simplified for clarity. To override this and view actual compile and
+ link lines during building, the --disable-silent-rules flag can be used
+ at configure time, or the 'make' command can be followed by V=1, to
+ indicate a "verbose" make. (MAM - 2011/4/14).
- Added mpicc and mpif90 as the default C and Fortran compilers for Linux
systems when --enable-parallel is specified but no $CC or $FC is defined.

-------------
- Removed config/ibm-aix6.x. All IBM-AIX settings are in one file,
ibm-aix. (AKC - 2011/4/14)
+ - Shared C libraries are no longer disabled on Mac when Fortran
+ is enabled. Shared Fortran libraries are still not supported on Mac,
+ so configure will disable them by default, but this is overridable
+ with the new --enable-unsupported configure option. The configure
+ summary has been updated to reflect the fact that the shared-ness of
+ the C++/Fortran wrapper libraries may not align with the C library.
