Ralph, I know you recently fixed a C99-related issue I saw in 1.10.0rc1 (removing designators in an initializer).
So, I was surprised to see the following with pgi-9.0-4 and -m32: ============================================================================ == Compiler and preprocessor tests ============================================================================ *** C compiler and preprocessor checking for gcc... (cached) pgcc checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... (cached) no checking whether pgcc accepts -g... (cached) yes checking for pgcc option to accept ISO C89... (cached) none needed checking whether pgcc and cc understand -c and -o together... yes checking for pgcc option to accept ISO C99... unsupported configure: WARNING: Open MPI requires a C99 compiler configure: error: Aborting. The odd thing is this is happening with "-m32", but not without it. Examining config.log shows problems with "ull" suffixes on constants. So, this does appear to be a *valid* choice to reject this compiler. HOWEVER, I just wanted to ask if 1.10.0 is really intended to be enforcing C99 or not? -Paul -- Paul H.
