I see more strange things.

If I look in the directory ~/Work/FEniCS/lib (default Dorsal
installation location for libraries), there's a bunch of symlinks that
point to themselves:

  libamd.a, libslepc.a, libpetsc.a, libumfpack.a

Any idea why this is so?

Is it a Mac thing or is it something with the PETSc/SLEPc
configuration?

Here's how it's currently done:

1. When PETSc is configured, it knows PETSC_DIR=pwd and it knows
PETSC_ARCH=<some random darwin-blabla string>.

2. When SLEPc is configured, it knows PETSC_DIR=INSTALL_PATH but it
doesn't know PETSC_ARCH.
