Bake 'PYTHONPATH' into lithomop3dapp.py, so that
users don't have to set it.  Also, install Python
scripts into 'pyexecdir' instead of 'pythondir',
since this package contains a native module...
on systems where 'pyexecdir' and 'pythondir'
are distinct, this is critical.
Avoid PETSC_*_BASIC variables; they are apparently
for internal use only.  Also, 'sed' PYTHON into
shebang line of top-level Python script.  (Lithomop
now installs successfully on the Pangu cluster.)
Added the capability to embed Python instead of
extending it; this creates one, big monolithic executable,
'pylithomop3d', which contains all Lithomop code and
an embedded Python interpreter.  Embedding works-around
MPI portability issues.  Embed by default;
'--with-embedding=no" to disable.
Fixed a bunch of bugs in the bindings.
I/O improvements: automatically configure Fortran "append" mode and
binary I/O, even under 'gfortran'...  this means deferring some
configuration decisions until runtime; see 'open_append.F' and
'try_binio.F'.  Also, validate I/O pathnames in Python: if _any_
input/output files cannot be opened, dump a concise error report
detailing _all_ the files that couldn't be opened, and what the errors
were.  As an added bonus, I macro-ized the pathnames in the inventory,
and tightened up exceptionhandler() a little.
Added new file 'binio.h' from previous checkin
to Makefile.am.
Changed externals from svn:// to http://
Fix for crash on 64-bit systems with ifort:  use
'size_t' instead of 'int' for the implicit string
length parameter of Fortran functions.
Allow building without MPI -- i.e., with a PETSc
configured --with-mpi=0 and a Pythia configured
--without-mpi.  This means not asking for Pythia's
'mpi' module (trivial), and checking for PETSc includes
and libs instead of checking for MPI directly (this
involved writing new PETSc Autoconf macros).

Also, factored-out the Fortran I/O Autoconf tests
into the CIG Autoconf archive, to make 'configure.ac'
pretty.  Prevent Libtool from looking for another F77
compiler by AC_PROVIDE-ing AC_PROG_F77.
Added a "make check" target which runs several
of the examples.  Deleted the redundant 'pyre' directory
because it was confusing 'python'.
Added 'test.sh' files to distribution.
Clean *.pyc files.
Bumped version number to 0.7.2; changed bug-report e-mail.

Added boilerplate GNU-style text info files.  "ChangeLog"
generated with svn2cl (http://ch.tudelft.nl/~arthur/svn2cl/)
using the following command:

svn log --xml | xsltproc --stringparam strip-prefix short/3D/lithomop/trunk --stringparam include-rev yes svn2cl.xsl - > ChangeLog
First draft of non-generic installation instructions.
Added MIT license file.
Updated license headers to MIT license using my patented
'licencetool' Perl script.
Added installation examples, and tested with a variety
of configurations.
Fixed silly mistake where quadratureOrder was written as a global variable
rather than as lm3dscan.quadratureOrder.
Commented out debugging statement.
