From Akira:

Akira has mucked with the header files.  The reason for this is as follows:
-> The serial build of Boxlib fakes MPI under the covers
-> When we try to build an AVT boxlib reader, a parallel version of the reader
   is built.
-> That reader links against MPI, which conflicts with the way the Boxlib
   library fakes MPI under the covers.
-> Problems emerge.

So use Akira's headers.


As far as building Boxlib:
-> Untar the tarball in this directory.
-> Go to the Boxlib subdirectory and modify the GNUmakefile.
-> It will figure out the platform, etc.
-> You pretty much just need to specify the dimension.
-> Rename the library to be something like libbox2D.a or libbox3D.a
