Just a comment: As far as I know, there is no way for a script (like a
bash script) to set environment variables in the shell that executes
the script. Therefore, there is no way for DOLFIN to set the values of
variables that are needed to compile against a DOLFIN installed in a
non-standard location. (But in your case it's standard so it shouldn't
be needed.)

It would also not be very nice to silently set some environment
variables for the user who compiles DOLFIN. So sourcing the
dolfin.conf must be done manually.
