   Satish,

   We should fix the PETSc BLAS/LAPACK configuration (BuildSystem) to not "have 
conflicts with macports blas/lapack" by, for example, to use the Apple 
BLAS/LAPACK if the macports one fail. That is, we shouldn't tell people not to 
use macports, we should have a configuration system robust enough to handle 
macports problems. Is this a problem we can reproduce? and hence debug? and 
hence fix?
