Open MPI uses GNU Libtool to build itself. I suspect that perhaps
Libtool doesn't know the Right Mojo to understand the Lahey compilers,
and that's why you're seeing this issue. As such, it might well be
that your workaround is the best one.
Ralf -- we build the OMPI 1.2 series with that
I am trying to build OpenMPI-1.2.6 with Lahey Fortran,
and I am running into problems. The issue is buliding
shared libraries with Lahey. Lahey can do it, but they
don't use the construct -fPIC to specify it. They
use --shared.
If I don't include anything, then the build fails near
the end whe
