'tis already in the README.

Someday we'll have nice glossy PDF's like LAM, but for the beta, the README is what you get. :-)

Details like this matter a lot to a few of us,
and many of us haven't drunk completely the 3000 gallons of twisted logic
that is the autotool conventions.

The default build is to make libmpi be a shared library and build all
the components as dynamic shared objects (think "plugins").

But we currently use Autoconf+Automake+Libtool, so to build everything
static, the standard flags suffice:

./configure --enable-static --disable-shared

This will make libmpi.a, all the components are statically linked into
libmpi.a, etc.  There's more esoteric configure flags that allow
building some components as DSOs and others statically linked into
libmpi, but most people want entirely one way or the other, so I won't
provide the [uninteresting] details here.
