The PGI C compiler complains (issues a warning) for the #pragma ident
in opal/runtime/opal_init.c:
PGC-W-0281-Pragma ignored - string expected after #pragma ident (../
opal/util/sys_limits.h: 58)
This is because the PCI C compiler does not (whereas, curiously, the
PGI C++ compiler does) support macro substitution in a #pragma ident,
which is the form of all the #pragma ident statements in OpenMPI:
[baker@hydra openmpi-1.5rc5]$ find . -name \*.c -exec grep -w "#pragma
ident" {} ';' -print
#pragma ident OMPI_IDENT_STRING
./ompi/runtime/ompi_mpi_init.c
#pragma ident OMPI_IDENT_STRING
./ompi/mpi/f77/init_f.c
#pragma ident OPAL_IDENT_STRING
./opal/runtime/opal_init.c
#pragma ident ORTE_IDENT_STRING
./orte/runtime/orte_init.c
The test for support of the #pragma ident feature in configure (which
appears twice: once for the C compiler, and once for the C++ compiler)
tests only the case when the pragma has a literal string argument:
ompi_ident="string_not_coincidentally_inserted_by_the_compiler"
cat > conftest.c <<EOF
#pragma ident "$ompi_ident"
int main(int argc, char** argv);
int main(int argc, char** argv) { return 0; }
EOF
However, that is not the form used by OpenMPI. The code in configure
should be changed to test the actual form of #pragma ident used by
OpenMPI:
ompi_ident="string_not_coincidentally_inserted_by_the_compiler"
cat > conftest.c <<EOF
#define OMPI_IDENT "$ompi_ident"
#pragma ident OMPI_IDENT
int main(int argc, char** argv);
int main(int argc, char** argv) { return 0; }
EOF
When this code is used instead (twice), the PGI C compiler fails the
configure test for #prgma ident support, as it should.

We still have one known possible regression:

But we posted rc5 anyway (there's a bunch of stuff that has been
pending for a while that is now in). Please test!
