Sorry, too many entries in this thread, I guess. My general goal is to get a working parallel hdf5 with openmpi on Mac OS X Mavericks. At one point in the saga I had romio disabled, which naturally doesn't work for hdf5 (which is trying to read/write files in parallel). So the hdf5 tests would of course fail. I subsequently had link errors with hdf5 because I was building openmpi with --disable-static, whereas the default (and recommended) option for hdf5 is to disable shared and build static. My most recent attempts were with openmpi with enable-static, enable-nodlopen. In that case, with openmpi 1.7.4rc1, hdf5 1.8.12 configured and built successfully but make chek-p produced many errors in its t-mpi tests, with messages like "proc 4: found data error at [2140143616+0], expect -7, got 6". The errors were reproduced by the HDF5 testing team with openmpir 1.7.4rc1, but not with 1.7.3 (which I am now building).
Hopefully that is an adequate summary.
