[mesa-users] ifort 14 on mac

Hi,

Ben Brown has kindly let me try ifort 14 on his mac (I can't do it on mine because my OSX is too old).

The download/install seems to have worked, but now I'm getting problems using it with mesa.
It compiles mesa/const, but the test fails with this message:

dyld: Library not loaded: libiomp5.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/paxton/mesa_intel/const/test/./tester
  Reason: image not found
./rn: line 1: 59526 Trace/BPT trap: 5       ./tester


When I saw that, I thought I had simply forgotten to run the intel login script.
So I did added these lines to my .bash_profile

export IFORTVARS='/opt/intel/composerxe/bin'
source $IFORTVARS/compilervars.csh intel64

But running that script gives this error:

brown:~ paxton$ source $IFORTVARS/compilervars.csh intel64
-bash: /opt/intel/composerxe/bin/compilervars.csh: line 39: syntax error: unexpected end of file


Next, I decided to check the intel tech support website.   After changing my password for them, I discovered something interesting.   Turns out they had just recently updated the last request I had submitted to them.  The request had been opened on 10/31/2006 and had been updated on 08/30/2013 to the new status of "Escalated to Engineering".  Good for intel --- only took them about 7 years for an issue to get passed from tech support to engineering.  Perhaps it will be resolved by engineering in time for your grandchildren to use.   But that's a digression .... back to the topic of ifort 14.


If anyone has managed to get ifort 14 to work on a mac, I'd like some help!

Thanks,
Bill
