    Improve checking for C compiler options on Solaris
    
    When using --enable-strict, configure tests for support of certain flags
    with the selected compiler. PAC_C_CHECK_COMPILER_OPTION (in
    confdb/aclocal_cc.m4) should be able to detect that the
    "-D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112L" flag is not accepted by the Solaris compiler,
    but it does not. The method used (AC_LANG_PROGRAM() in confdb/aclocal_cc.m4:48)
    uses an empty parameter, the result of which is an empty main that somehow
    passes the detection. Replacing it with a "hello world" test case will
    correctly detect the error and remove "-D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112L" from the
    accepted flags. Configure can then complete successfully.
    
    Note that compilation in this configuration will still freeze due to a
    solaris compiler bug. See #2105.

+### Solaris compilers
+
+ * Compilation on solaris will freeze when MPICH is configured with 
+   "--enable-strict". This is due to a solaris compiler bug related
+   to a specific order of assignments to long long and short variables.
+   See the following ticket for more information:
+
+     https://trac.mpich.org/projects/mpich/ticket/2105

 ### Fine-grained thread safety
 
  * ch3:sock does not (and will not) support fine-grained threading.
