I don't know what's going on.

The key lines are:

     parser.add_option('--petsc-arch', help='Set PETSC_ARCH different 
from environment', default=os.environ.get('PETSC_ARCH'))

...

     main(petsc_arch=opts.petsc_arch, output=opts.output, ...)




So certainly your second case is redundant.  The first problem
indicates a problem with config/gmakegen.py since I inherit from
that.  I'm at SC right now -- I can take a look later.
