[Coin-ipopt] MUMPS 'independent' package for use with IPOPT

[Damien Hocking]

Well, I did the original work, and I suppose Andreas is responsible for 
IPOPT.  I'm willing to help out, although I'm a SCons person rather than 
a make person.  I'm sure there's enough people or tutorials out there 
that it could be made to work.  I'll ask the MUMPS devs if anyone has 
done a MUMPS rpm already, that would speed things up.

PS Nice to see a fellow Aussie on the list...
