Thank you for the reply and attachments.  I searched the archive before
sending my own email and did find a couple of the previous messages, but
believe mine is a different situation.  The macro expansion is working (I'm
using PGI 11.10) but the macro is set to "" instead of "1.7a1? (no
svnversion) MM-DD-YYYY" by an error in the configure script generation.
Installing subversion is a cheap workaround that makes the svnversion
command available and the macro gets set to "1.7a1r25476M" or whatever repo
version you are at.

I did not mention it before but this happens when I try to build the trunk
or the 1.5 development branch.  The 1.4 branch's configure code doesn't even
bother to test for svnversion failing and just ends up setting OMPI_VERSION
to "1.4.4rc5r"

The problem is with configure's with_ident_string assignment:

        with_ident_string="`echo $with_ident_string | sed -e
's/%VERSION%/'$OMPI_VERSION/`"

OMPI_VERSION is set to "1.7a1? (no svnversion) MM-DD-YYYY" but the spaces in
OMPI_VERSION break the expression because sed sees the rest of the version
string as extra arguments instead of part of the -e script.  It doesn't show
up in config.log, but the configure output to the terminal at this point is:

        checking if want ident string... sed: -e expression #1, char 18:
unterminated `s' command

The config.status shows:

        D["OPAL_IDENT_STRING"]=" \"\""

If I patch config/opal_get_version.m4 to remove the spaces:

it verifies that the spaces were the problem.  OMPI_VERSION gets set to
"1.7a1?(nosvnversion);11-15-2011", configure runs without an sed error, and
config.status shows:

        D["OPAL_IDENT_STRING"]=" \"1.7a1?(nosvnversion);11-15-2011\""

and opal/runtime/opal_init.c compiles without triggering the misleading PGI
error, but doesn't look quite as pretty.  Perhaps a better solution is to
modify the with_ident_string assignment to work correclty with spaces in
OMPI_VERSION intact:

 AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([OPAL_IDENT_STRING], ["$with_ident_string"],

In this case the resulting config.status has:

        D["OPAL_IDENT_STRING"]=" \"1.7a1? (no svnversion); 11-15-2011\""

and the compile works.  I have attached the second patch for both trunk and
1.5 as it is probably the better solution (don't assume OMPI_VERSION has no
spaces) and I have not found other instances of spaces in the version string
breaking anything.  As for OpenMPI 1.4's development branch, I'll leave the
choice to patch or leave as-is for someone else to discuss.

FYI, PGI has assigned my support request TPR #18274.  I'm curious what they
will come back with.

Tom,

This is because the code in OpenMPI presumes macros will be expanded in
pragmas, but that is not required by the C standard.  (See my e-mails below
from last year with PGI, TPR 17186.)  I fixed OpenMPI 1.4.3 configure in the
attached patch.  My patch also disables inline assembly for PGI C++, the
same as for PGI C.  (Something similar may also have to be done to solve
Eugene's asm statement warnings on Solaris 11.)  It also fixes detection of
support for marshaling Fortran REAL16 and COMPLEX32 data types.
