Great! That's exactly what I was hoping for. Are you willing to
predict its release date (month, year, millenium, ...)?
And thanks for the lengthy explanation. We'll still have to use the
.lamrc scheme for the transition to 7.1, given that the current lamboot
doesn't support a prefix option.
You didn't mention LAMHOME. Is that no longer necessary for lamboot,
lamd, or mpirun? Or was that always just a convenience for setting up PATH?
