Setting appropriate macro during configuration.
Description:
We found special collective IO doesn't work in mpich 1.2.5 and 1.2.6.
Solution:
Use this script to detect this during configuration and set the correct macro.
Platforms tested:
heping,mir and copper
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
Mpich2 also has the derived type errors but some mpich2 gave no
verison number and some gave 1.0.2.
Solution:
Added those two cases to catch mpich2 that had these sort of errors.
Platforms tested:
heping using mpich and mpich2.
Bug fix.
Description:
The previous way of detecting the MPICH version fails if the suspected
$CC does not give the expected MPICH version information. Though no
consequence, it generates error messages that alarm users.
Also, mpich2 gives the version information as if it were mpich v1.0.2
which was incorrectly included as an earlier version of the origianl
mpich.
Solution:
Implemented a more robust code to detect the version and narrow the
recognition down to v1.2.0-v1.2.5. Also, the code were duplicated in
two files (linux-gnulibc1 and ia64-linux-gnu). Combined them into a
new file called mpich.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping using mpicc and mpich2/mpicc and also in tg-ncsa.
Misc. update:
Updated MANIFEST.
