* There is also a configure error on Altix machines that incorrectly reports
when a version of Szip without an encoder is being used.
+
+* On cobalt, an SGI Altix SMP ia64 system, Intel compiler version 10.1 (which
+ is the default on that system) does not work properly, and results in
+ failures during make check (in a static build) and make installcheck (during
+ a shared build). This appears to be a compiler optimization problem.
+ Reducing optimization by setting CFLAGS to -O1 or below resolves the issue.
+ Alternatively, using a newer version of the compiler (11.0) also works as
+ intended. MAM - 2010/06/01
