Sounds good.

The problem before was that some platforms seemed to be ok with adding
UMFPACK (which is really needed or else we don't have a direct solver)
while there were still some that had to do without.

I assume we can have petsc on all platforms except Mac where we need
petsccore since the Fortran support in OpenMPI is missing.
