I don't see how configure "implements my second suggestion"(?) For options
hpf90 and xlf90_suse, the "fc" (fortran compiler) variable is set to
mpif90, but not for other input options.
One problem is that configure processes the mpi-related options first, and
then the compiler-related options. This probably needs to be turned around.
Basically, there are at least two problems that may require this change:
1. The latest openmpi implementation has an mpif.h file that itself
has an 'include' statement inside it. Without using the mpif90 wrapper
script, the code doesn't know how to resolve this interior include.
2. (Apparently) the "mpif90 -show" command for MPICH2 is not including
-lfmpich as a library that is needed at link time, but it is in fact
needed. (cf. line 314 of configure).
Biting the bullet and using the compiler wrappers provided by the MPI
distributions is probably the simplest way to provide a fix here, but I am
certainly open to alternative suggestions.
