[Paraview] Statically linking catalyst to fortran simulation code on Titan

[Andy Bauer]

If I remember correctly, FindMPI.cmake is trying to set the language
specific libraries (e.g. MPI_CXX_LIBRARIES) and if those aren't set then it
will try to find them and finally overwrite what is in MPI_LIBRARY. So I
would suggest changing what Dave D. suggested with
MPI_{C,CXX,Fortran}_LIBRARIES set in addition to setting MPI_LIBRARY. If
you look at FindMPI.cmake, you'll see that MPI_LIBRARY and
MPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY are deprecated.
