Hi Abhinav
For what it is worth, I built here OpenMPI 1.4.4 on Linux x86-64 CentOS 5.2 [a
bit old]
with the PGI 11.7 compilers.
I didn't even use the -noswitcherror switch [which I had to use in some of the
previous versions of OpenMPI and PGI].
How about forcing the use of shared libraries with -Bdynamic along with that
-noswitcherror,
in the CC, FC, etc declarations?
Still, this looks strange, and my guess is that this may be some twist in your
compiler
installation/configuration.
But it may come also from the OpenMPI configure script.
Could the OpenMPI configure pick and use the PGI -Bstatic flag, perhaps?
This type of thing only the developers can tell.
Better hear from them.
I hope this helps,
