[OMPI users] sed: 33: ...: unescaped newline inside substitute pattern

[Michael Clover]

I have been attempting to compile open-mpi, both 1.2.2 and 1.2.3 on a new iMac (core 2 duo, 2.4 GHz, OS X 10.4.10), using gfortran as my fortran compiler, and a very recent Xtools (ld -v gives version cctools-622.5.obj~13). I have tried both the full line, configure --prefix=/usr/local/openmpi --disable-mpi-cxx --disable-mpi- f90 --without-xgrid FC=gfortran

as well as a truncated line,
configure --prefix=/usr/local/openmpi
and switched compilers via
setenv FC g95

configure --prefix=/usr/local/openmpi --disable-mpi-cxx --disable-mpi- f90 --without-xgrid and in all cases, after minutes of working away, get to the point that someone else got to last year (when it tries to create the Makefiles, etc) and get the following output (approximately 200 pairs of sed:33 and sed:4's). This has been happening for over a week, with reboots every night. I attach the configure terminal output as well as the log file (for a 1.2.2 attempt).

ompi-output.tar.gz

*** Final output
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating ompi/include/ompi/version.h

config.status: creating orte/include/orte/version.h
