Dave,
    FYI, I checked the current packages that use lammpi in fink 10.4 unstable.
In gromacs-mpi-lammpi-dev we have...

otool -L /sw/lib/libgmx_mpi.dylib | grep 77
        /sw/lib/lammpi/liblamf77mpi.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, 
current version 1.0.0)

The apbs-mpi-lammpi package is also problematic because it is directly linked
to libgfortran...

otool -L /sw/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin8.7.0/apbs | grep gfortran
        /sw/lib/gcc4/lib/libgfortran.1.dylib (compatibility version 2.0.0, 
current version 2.0.0)

So symlinks to the new lammpi libs will be no good as they are built
against the gfortran and any packages built against the old lammpi will
have been built against g77. So either we create lammpi2 and depreciate
the lammpi or we ignore the issue and just expect anyone smart enough to
use MPI will be bright enough to figure out that 'fink update-all' is
required to resync the installed packages to the new versions. Considering
how few people install lammpi and the packages that it uses, I'm not sure
its worth the effort.
                  Jack
