So, speaking only for myself, I already recommend that users of any recent Open MPI avoid compiling it using the PathScale compilers. My own testing shows that both ekopath-5.0.5 and ekopath-6.0.527 experience Internal Compiler Errors or SEGVs when building Open MPI, and at least one other package I care about (GASNet). So I think you can understand why I find it ironic that PathScale should request that the Open MPI sources revert to C89 to support PathScale compilers for an EOL distro. -Paul -- Paul H.
