Supporting the Sun compiler has come up before on this list. In the
GA_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS macro, there is a PUSH/POP macro for replacing CC et al
with the unwrapped MPI compilers. I could have made that more clear since
there are a lot of comments about the Sun hack but not the unwrapping hack
within the macro itself.
