The new indexes are a good idea, but they seem a bit inconsistent:

- The examples index is a mix of upper and lower case MPI function names
- The MPI constant index has only 1 C++ constant listed
- I see weird entries in the MPI constant index, such as:
   MPI_ERR_... (I'm not abbreviating -- there's actually an
"MPI_ERR_..." entry)
   MPI_Delete_function
   MPI_Copy_function
   MPI_Aint
   ...and others
- I'm not sure what the MPI C++ index is; the only item listed that
does not have an equivalent in C is MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS
- The MPI function index has weird entries, similar to the constant
index, such as:
   MPI_
   MPI_*_FREE
   MPI_{TYPE,COMM,WIN}_CREATE_KEYVAL
   MPI_Comm_delete_attr_function
   ...and others
- The MPI function index also has a mix of upper and lower case MPI
function names
