Build error: global/src/scalapack.F This name does not have a type, and must have an explicit type.

Hi. I am building GA with Intel tool set. The configuration is:

./configure MPICXX=mpiicpc MPIF77=mpiifort MPICC=mpiicc --prefix=/scratch/PI/yonghuang/GlobalArray --enable-i8 --with-sockets --with-blas8="-L$MKLROOT/lib/intel64 -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_intel_thread -lmkl_core -liomp5 -lpthread -lm" --with-scalapack8="-L$MKLROOT/lib/intel64 -lmkl_scalapack_ilp64 -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_intel_thread -lmkl_core -lmkl_blacs_intelmpi_ilp64 -liomp5 -lpthread -lm"

And the MPI is:

$ mpirun -V
Intel(R) MPI Library for Linux* OS, Version 2019 Update 7 Build 20200312 (id: 5dc2dd3e9)
Copyright 2003-2020, Intel Corporation.

When I make -j, errors show up like this:

global/src/scalapack.F(2454): error #6404: This name does not have a type, and must have an explicit type.   [GA_DEALLOCATE]
      if (.not.ga_deallocate(g_b))

-----------------^

I would appreciate it if anyone could help me with this.

I have solved this by using an older version, v5.7.2.

I am going to leave this issue open until it is truly solved in v5.8.

The 5.8.1 tarball has been updated with fix https://github.com/GlobalArrays/ga/commit/a84cb63584204a22efa806e9e1c2ea10688d57bc

This issue is fixed for me. Please reopen it you think otherwise
