configure fails when using gnu fortran compilers

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Using the source from the p3dfft-f90 branch, although the other configure
branch should yield the same results:

# ./configure --with-fftw="/usr/local" FCFLAGS="-O3" CFLAGS="-DGCC"
LDFLAGS="-lmpi -lmpi_f77 -lmpi_f90"

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

My libmpi is in the /usr/local[/lib] directory:
# locate libmpi.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.0.0.1

If export LDPRELOAD with the full path to that file, it will continue with
that error but for a different file.

This is something I've been working on the side (testing compatibility with 
different 
compilers). You can see my progress on the branch p3dfft-dist

• Changed state: Accepted

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The following arguments should compile P3DFFT.. I will amend the wiki entry 
accordingly:

./configure --enable-gcc --with-fftw="$FFTWHOME" LDFLAGS="-lmpi_f90 -lmpi_f77"
