[Help-gsl] compiling gsl-1.11 with pgcc 13.3-0

[Gavin Pringle]

Hi,

  I'm trying to install GSL 1.11 with pgcc 13.3-0 64-bit target on x86-64 Linux.

  According to 
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv2.0/compilation/req_libs.php
"PGI users should download and compile GSL-1.11 since later versions do
not build correctly with PGI."

  Now after configure and during make, we get the same warnings 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gsl/2013-01/txtRLChKDtOUI.txt

  Using verbose and -Minform=inform, it's clear the gnu math.h in
/usr/include is being picked up before the pgi math.h in
/opt/pgi/linux86-64/13.3/include and, as such, GSL_POSINF is not being
set correctly.

  We've tried the following configure line:
./configure CC=pgcc CFLAGS=-I/opt/pgi/linux86-64/13.3/include 
--prefix=/home/username/gsl
but this fails.

  Is there a solution to this? Should we configure then edit gsl/gsl_math.h or
edit the makefile perhaps?

Cheers,
 Gavin
