ncmpi_inq_malloc_max_size()

[Wei-keng Liao]

Hi,

This is a bug reported by Bruno Pagani and its fix has been added
to the master branch. I plan to make a minor release of PnetCDF soon.

Please note this bug only affect the example programs, not the PnetCDF library.
More information about the bug and fix can be found in
https://github.com/Parallel-NetCDF/PnetCDF/issues/34
https://github.com/Parallel-NetCDF/PnetCDF/pull/35

FYI. If you added option "--enable-profiling” in your configure line
when building PnetCDF, this error will go away. This option collects
and reports memory footprints of PnetCDF library.
