@fxcoudert Ah -- interesting point! That certainly makes things more complicated. I'll push an update here that seems to work for me -- can you check it as well? I'm going to switch this PR back to draft status because I'm not entirely happy with how I coded up the configury; @bwbarrett can you chime in with any better suggestions on how to build the shared library in |

The above force-push was to update/clarify some of the explanation comments -- no code or logic changed. |

@bwbarrett and I talked through this on the RM call today; this PR seems to be a reasonable compromise. Move this PR out of Draft state. @fxcoudert and/or anyone else: can you test this on your systems and see if it fixes the issue for you? |
Per open-mpi#12427, on MacOS, add -Wl,-ld_classic to the Fortran wrapper compiler if that flag is needed. Specifically, Open MPI has used -Wl,-commons,use_dylibs for decades to support common symbols (e.g., MPI_BOTTOM) in the Fortran bindings. There is a window of Xcode versions where this switch was effectively disabled; it effectively required the additional -Wl,-ld_classic switch to force the use of the "old" Apple linker (that still supported -Wl,-commons,use_dylibs). Update the configury to test whether we need -Wl,-ld_classic or not. Signed-off-by: Jeff Squyres <[email protected]>
