Statically linked or dynamically, it doesn't matter. If the library is
compiled as an rpm, for instance, and then you compile your application
with PGI or Intel compiler, you may have the same issue.
By static compilation I was meaning the setup where HDF5 code is
compiled into client application. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
As you correctly stated (and as I mentioned earlier) C users may also be
in trouble in case they use different compiler or different compiler flags.
