Comment (by mascguy):

 Replying to [comment:4 aivazis]:
 > I don't think there is actual work involved here, beyond perhaps a
 trivial adjustment to the port description so that it mentions what the
 intent of the port is. On a quick read of the description, all you see is
 a list of gcc choices and the openmpi project boilerplate. The important
 sentence that explains what the port is for is easy to miss, even though
 it is in all caps further down. I was a bit confused, and I'm guessing
 others might be also.

 Whenever we can easily reduce confusion -- particularly by a simple
 description change -- I'm on-board.

 Ryan/Anyone, do you folks have any objections to tweaking the description
 a bit? I'll propose the changes here to build consensus.
