I have a system w/ xlc-11.1.
It has essentially always failed "make check" in a LP64 build due to xlc
botching the atomics.
So, when it failed with 1.8.5.rc2 I didn't look closely.
Today it has failed with rc3 and I *did* look closely and here is what I
see:
PASS: predefined_gap_test
/bin/sh: line 5: 39766 Segmentation fault ${dir}$tst
FAIL: dlopen_test
========================================================
1 of 2 tests failed
Please report to http://www.open-mpi.org/community/help/
========================================================
I also see the same in the rc2 results I hadn't examined closely before.
Meanwhile the rc1 failure was the known atomics-related one.
So, UNLESS I find that the dlopen_test failure is related to the atomics or
some other problem specific to xlc, this may be a new issue related to the
elimination of the built-in libltdl. Note that this system.
Here's hoping this is a new symptom, and not a new problem.
