PGI was installed correctly because some other software for computational
chemistry and molecular dynamics works well (with pgcc, pgCC and mpicc
compiled with PGI suite).

Ehm... this is the code @ line 36

36: #define container_of(ptr, type, member) ({                      \
37:        typeof( ((type *)0)->member ) *__mptr = (ptr);  \
38:        (type *)(unsigned long)((char *)__mptr -
offsetof(type,member));})
39:
40: /* noop */
41: static inline void prefetch(const void *x ATTR_UNUSED) {;}

In the list.c file i don't find the string "#ifdef _CRAYC" ... Is wrong my
file? o.O

I try to use mpiexec compiled with GNU compiler and other software compiled
with mpicc (MPICH 1.2.7 built with PGI compiler). If all works well I leave
mpiexec compiled with GNU..

Thanks a lot!
