You fixed it Ben! Its finally working now so thank you!

I'll have to look into the complex numbers later. I initially enabled that 
configure option in anticipation of using some complex number degrees of freedom 
on my mesh. But at least now libmesh is working and I can mess around with some 
toy models to see if this thing will do what I need it to do :-)

I had to compile this myself since the Debian Sid libmesh0.6.4 package seems to 
be in bad shape. AFAIK they have upgraded petsc to a version that is 
incompatible with libmesh0.6.4 and the latter is therefore currently 
uninstallable. My impression is that it will not be in the upcoming stable 
Debian release (although I might be wrong on that last point).

Thanks again!
