This is the most useless piece of shit information I have seen in my entire life! It tells me NOTHING about what compiler is being used.<br>
I want the mpicc -show and mpif90 -show to be printed in make.log if an MPI compiler is being used! How can we figure out what is going<br>
on when we don't even know what compiler is being used?</blockquote><div><br>I am not opposed to this, but it ONLY works for mpich.

Plus NO information about the linker options that are used are put into make.log!! That information needs to go in there also.</blockquote><div><br>I agree.

Debugging failed builds for other people is painful enough but when we shoot ourselves in the foot by not putting the information we need in the log files we make it ten times worse.<br>

Please fix this.<br><font color="#888888">
