  List 

   --with-cc=mpiicc --with-fc=mpiifort  

   do not list --with-mpi-compilers=0 or —with-mpi-dir or —with-mpi-libs

If I have to specify the lib names (using --with-mpi-lib?), which libs should I specify? I saw a lot of libs under the directory, such as libmpi.a, libmpi_ipl64.a, libmpi_mt.a, etc.
