David, Thanks for suggesting a work-around. I see I am probably on the edge.
I already tried what you suggested in points 1 and 3. And the only additional packages that I am linking to are BLAS and LAPACK. I thought of linking them (even though I don't use) because I was using PETSc anyway. For now, I have the release build and don't require a debug build. I will keep your suggestions in mind in case I plan to have a debug version. Thanks again!
