Thank you for all this information.

Your diagnosis is totally right.  I actually sent e-mail yesterday but
apparently it never got through :<

It IS the MPI application that is failing to link, not OpenMPI itself; my
e-mail was not well written; sorry Brice.

The situation is this:  I am trying to compile using an OpenMPI 1.5.4 that
was built to be rooted in /release, but it is not placed there yet
(testing); it is currently under /builds/release.  I have set OPAL_PREFIX in
the environment, with the intention of helping the compiler wrappers work
right. Under /release, I currently have OpenMPI 1.4.3, whereas the OpenMPI
under /builds/release is 1.5.4.

What I am getting is this:  The mpif90 wrapper (under
/builds/release/openmpi/bin) puts -I/release instead of -I/builds/release.
But it includes -L/builds/release.

So I'm getting headers from 1.4.3 when compiling, but the libmpi from 1.5.4
when linking.

I did a quick "move 1.4.3 out of the way and put 1.5.4 over to /release
where it belongs" test, and my application did link without errors, so I
think that confirms the nature of the problem.

Is it a bug that mpif90 didn't pay attention to OPAL_PREFIX in the -I but
did use it in the -L ?

I think the issue here is that it's linking the *MPI application* that is
causing the problem.  Is that right?

If so, can you send your exact application compile line, and the the output
of that compile line with "--showme" at the end?
