it is a quite of headache for each compiler/platform to deal with
mixed language
issues. I have to compile my application on IBM visual age compiler,
Pathscale, Cray X1E compiler,
intel/openmpi, intel/mpich, PGI compiler ...
And of course, openmpi 1.1 is different on this comparing with
openmpi 1.2.2 (-lmpi_f77 is new to 1.2.2 version). :-)
You are right. MPI forum most like will not take care of this. I just
made a wish ... :-)

Anthony Chan's macro works fine to identify the openmpi (Thanks a
lot!). After that I use mpif90 -showme:link to find out the flags and
put them into LDFLAGS in my application. -- That is all I needed.
Thanks.
