Thanks. That works. I have a related question about forms.  Can the
form be defined in python, and then compiled via ffc? For example, I
did,

from dolfin import *
mesh = Mesh("./mesh_2d.xml")
V = VectorFunctionSpace(mesh, "Lagrange", 1,3)
u = Function(V)
M = dot(u,u)*dx


and then called ffc on this form. This generated a header file. Are
there any caveats here that I should be careful about?
