Can you say what you mean by "still works well"? Something like this:

    ./configure cray (any other options needed? can I just add -mpi
                        or -openmp flags if desired?)

    make install (or did you have to explicitly mention a
                         target like "cray_serial"?)

If/when things work like the above, it seems to me that we should
add "cray" to the allowed list of compilers in the --help message.

Also, as pointed out earlier, an explanation of how "cray" differs from
"crayxt5": I would expect most users will not understand the existing error
message without more hand-holding:

  Error: '-crayxt5' flag not compatible with 'cray' compiler target.


Dan: thanks for working on this!.....dac
