compiled openmpi-1.2.4 using the Lahey-Fujitsu compiler (lfc). The
compilation of openmpi went fine.

 $ ../configure --enable-mpi-f90 --enable-mpi-f77 --enable-mpi-cxx
--prefix=/home/research/pletzer/local/x86_64/openmpi-1.2.4/ FC=lfc
F77=lfc FCFLAGS=-O2 FFLAGS=-O2 --disable-shared --enable-static

However, when compiling a test code with mpif90, I get the following error:

<snip>

[pletzer@quartic test]$ mpif90 t.f90
Encountered 0 errors, 0 warnings in file t.f90.

Open MPI only supports statically linking an application when the --without-memory-manager option is given to Open MPI's configure. You can build Open MPI statically (ie, make a libmpi.a) without that option, but you can not statically link an application (ie, use libc.a) without it.
