[Wien] A Valid .machines file

[Laurence Marks]

There appears to be a bit of confusion here, the different formats
mean different things:

Case 1:
1:nx80:8

This uses mpi which means that lapw1_mpi & lapw2_mpi as well as some
appropriate mpirun must all have been compiled.

Case 2:
1:nx80
1:nx80
...

This runs a number of tasks using lapw1, lapw2 in parallel on the same
node, hopefully using different cores.
