  Hello Guix,

I have recently noticed that the "petsc" package raises the following warnings during the configuration phase, showing that the compiler only does O1 optimization for now:

=============================================================================================
                         Configuring PETSc to compile on your system

                                     ***** WARNING *****
  Using default FC optimization flags "-g -O". You might consider manually setting optimal
  optimization flags for your system with FOPTFLAGS="optimization flags" see
  config/examples/arch-*-opt.py for examples
=============================================================================================

So here is a patch that follows the hints and passes the "-g -O3" flags to the COPTFLAGS, CXXOPTFLAGS and FOPTFLAGS variables.
The package builds successfully on my machine. Some tests fail for both the packages "petsc" and "petsc-openmpi", but these were failing already with the "-O1" flag (so maybe this could be the topic of another issue).
I am looking forward for your review.

Cheers,
Luca

  Activate higher compiler optimization for PETSc.
