Note that this is a trunk change; no need or desire to bring it over to the v1.3 branch. It's intended to be for v1.5.

FWIW, this type of flag probably should have been --enable to begin with (not --with), because it's a boolean.

Will this cause significant headaches if the name changes in 1.5?

Yes it is - so I'll have to change all the platform files, and alert people here as they will no longer be backwards compatible with the 1.3 series.

This will cause some bookkeeping headaches, so I do hope the change was worth something and not just a "tomato" versus "tomahto" issue.

Dear all,
please note, that with the separation of configure-flags into project-related
sections, the one for openib-control-hdr-padding was moved.

As Jeff noted, it is however most suitable in ompi_check_openib.m4.
However, I put this as an AC_ARG_ENABLE, instead of an AC_ARG_WITH.
Ralph, this is used by LANL, correct?

With best regards,
Rainer
