[CIG-SHORT] pylith install

[Brad Aagaard]

Chris-

What PETSc are you using (tarball on the CIG website for v1.3.1 or from the 
repository)? If you use the PyLith source tarball, you *must* use the PETSc 
tarball on the CIG website corresponding to the PyLith source tarball. 
Likewise, if you use PyLith from the repository, you *must* use PETSc from 
its repository. This is due to the fact that PyLith stays in sync with the 
developer's version of PETSc (both of which are constantly changing).

We messsed with the -I./m4 flag because Charles ran into some problems on his 
machine. Try adding a space ("-I ./m4") and let us know if that works. What 
operating system are you using?
