    Handle different OpenMP flags for Fortran and C · ba9a188f
    Lorenz Huedepohl authored
    There was an inconsistency when the OpenMP flag was different for the
    Fortran and C compiler (e.g. -openmp for ifort and -fopenmp for gcc).
    
    This led to strange errors when linking the example program with the C
    main() routine when using Intel Fortran, Intel MPI, and GCC together, a
    typical error message was
    
      /usr/bin/ld: MPIR_Thread: TLS definition in [...]/intel64/lib/libmpi_dbg_mt.so section .tbss mismatches non-TLS definition in [...]/intel64/lib/libmpi_dbg.so section .bss
      [...]/intel64/lib/libmpi_dbg_mt.so: could not read symbols: Bad value
    
    The reason seems to be that the various MPI wrapper shell scripts
    (mpicc, mpiifort) need the correct OpenMP option to select the
    thread-safe Intel MPI debug library. Previously, always OPENMP_FCFLAGS
    was appended to LDFLAGS, which did not trigger this when linking a C
    main program with mpicc.
