With the 1.7.0 release of PNetCDF, I've started getting there errors 
from the "make check":

    ./nctst        ./testfile.nc
    [ivb106:6511] *** An error occurred in MPI_Type_create_hindexed
    [ivb106:6511] *** reported by process [46912098861057,46909632806912]
    [ivb106:6511] *** on communicator MPI_COMM_WORLD
    [ivb106:6511] *** MPI_ERR_ARG: invalid argument of some other kind
    [ivb106:6511] *** MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL (processes in this
    communicator will now abort,
    [ivb106:6511] ***    and potentially your MPI job)
    *** TESTING C++ ./nctst for APIs with different netCDF formats    
    ------ make[2]: [testing] Error 13 (ignored)

    ./tst_f90      ./testfile.nc
    [ivb106:7079] *** An error occurred in MPI_Type_create_hindexed
    [ivb106:7079] *** reported by process [46912052199425,46909632806912]

    make[2]: [testing] Error 13 (ignored)

It looks like the 1.6.1 release passed the same:

    ./nctst        ./testfile.nc
    *** TESTING C++ ./nctst for APIs with different netCDF formats    
    ------ pass

    ./tst_f90      ./testfile.nc
    *** TESTING F90 ./tst_f90                                         
    ------ pass

Can you tell me what the issue is here? I'm using OpenMPI 1.10.2 in both 
cases.
The error happens when I use the Intel 15.0, GCC 4.8.5 and PGI 16.4 
compilers, so I don't believe the compiler is the problem.
Thanks,
