Hi Brock,

  Just to add my two cents now, I finally got around to building WRF with
PGI 7.2 as well.  I noticed that in the configure script there isn't an
option specifically for PGI (Fortran) + PGI (C), and when I try that
combination I do get the same error you have - I'm doing this on RHEL5.2,
with PGI 7.2-2.  There *is* a 7.2-3 out that I haven't tried yet, but they
don't mention anything about this particular error in the fixes section of
their documentation, so I'm guessing they haven't come across it yet.

  .. In the meantime, you *can* successfully build WRF with a PGI (Fortran)
+ GCC (C) OpenMPI install.  I just did that, and tested it with one case,
using OpenMPI-1.2.6, PGI 7.2-2 and GCC 4.1.2 on the same RHEL 5.2 system.

  In a nutshell, I'm pretty sure it's a PGI problem.  If you want to post it
in their forums, they're generally pretty responsive. (And if you don't, I
will, since it'd be nice to see it work without a hybrid MPI installation!)

  Cheers,
  - Brian
