-# Per https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/3523 and
-# http://lists.mpi-forum.org/mpi-comments/2013/02/0076.php, the
-# Fortran compiler may not support default LOGICAL parameters with
-# BIND(C).  OMPI's F08 bindings currently require this.  
-#
-# So at least for the moment, test to see if the compiler allows
-# default LOGICAL parameters with BIND(C).
