Sounds promissing.
The post you cite above encounters "PGC-S-..." lines, where the "-S-"
indicates a "Severe" error. Your log has "PGC-I-..." ("Information) and
"PGC-W-..." ("Warning") lines. These generally don't affect the operation
of the compiled code, but are things the developers may want to examine,
especially if they appear when compiling end-user code. You certainly want
to run "make check" (perhaps with HDF5TestExpress=0) and look over the
results carefully. On macOS with PGI I see:
Testing soft denormalized float -> double conversions
*WARNING*
[...]
maximum warnings reached, aborting test...
For hdf5-1.8.17, release_docs/INSTALL has a section "A.2. Building and
testing with PGI compilers" which says:
set the environment variable CXX to "pgCC -tlocal"
