Hi Neil,
Since the configure process is executed in the front end which is a
Linux system,
configure naturally thinks it is working in a Linux system, therefore it
goes to
the Linux configure settings. I think the right solution is to tell
configure to
build for a cross-compiling Cray system. This will take some effort and
won't
be available in the pending release v1.8.11. We are planning to provide it
in the next release.

Hi Albert,
We are using a Cray XK6 running Cray's Compute Linux Environment (CLE) with
the Cray CCE compiler. The front end nodes run SLES Linux and the compute
nodes run CLE. So when building HDF5 (and any other application/library)
it's a cross compilation.
I can get the library to build successfully, both serial and parallel
versions by hacking the "config/linux-gnulibcl" to remove the inclusion of
the intel-flags and intel-fflags files (as stated previously). It would be
handy if the configure script could correctly identify the Cray CCE compiler
as some users may not be aware that this is the problem.
We use pretty much the same method as described in the
"release_docs/INSTALL_parallel". As the doc says, the key is to set the
RUNPARALLEL and RUNSERIAL environment variables.
With the Cray CCE compiler it doesn't generate Fortran module files by
default, so you have to make sure that "-em" is set in FFLAGS. For CFLAGS
and CXXFLAGS we also have to set "-h tolerant -h system_alloc".
I'll try to post our configure options for both serial and parallel builds
tomorrow when I next have access to the system in case this is of help.
Cheers,
Neil.
