I went to try to reproduce the problem Larry Baker reported w/ the PGI
10.3 compilers and undefined references in libopen-pal.so when linking
opal_wrapper. Instead I encountered a different error that does not (as
best I can tell) correspond to any of the issues Larry has reported
recently. Once I disable the error-inducing VT code, I am unable to
reproduce Larry's problem with the 10.3, 10.5 or 10.8 PGI compilers.
My system and the errors:

It appears that the source file in question ALREADY contains a
work-around for this issue:
/* Disable OpenMP if the PGI compiler is used to work around the
following errors:
compiler version compiler error
< 9.0-3 PGCC-S-0000-Internal compiler error. calc_dw_tag:no tag
(see Technical Problem Report 4337 at
http://www.pgroup.com/support/release_tprs_90.htm)
10.1 - 10.6 this kind of pragma may not be used here
#pargma omp barrier
*/
#if defined(_OPENMP) && defined(__PGI)
# undef _OPENMP
#endif
#ifdef _OPENMP
# include <omp.h>
#else
# define omp_get_thread_num() 0
# define omp_get_num_threads() 1
#endif
However, it appears that the C++ STL headers (included via Summary.h)
are indirectly including omp.h, leading to this failure: the "expected
an identifier" due to the two #defines in the work-around, and the "this
kind of pragma..." errors due to the original issue resurfacing.
I have reproduced this problem with PGI versions 10.3, 10.5 and 10.8.
If I configure with --disable-vt then I (obviously) don't encounter this
error. In that case I am able to complete the build of 1.5rc5 with no
errors. This means an INABILITY to reproduce Larry's undefined
references problem.
