[svn-r25851] INSTALL_parallel already has a known issues section for Hopper.
I moved all hopper known problems from RELEASE.txt to INSTALL_parallel so that they are all in one place.

case, you need to cleanup everything and start again as detailed above
but use serial make (do not use -j <x>).
+Issue 2:
+* When building using the Cray compilers on Cray machines, HDF5
+ configure mistakenly thinks the compiler is an intel compiler and
+ sets the -std=c99 flag which breaks configure on Cray. To build HDF5
+ properly on a Cray machine, please consult with the instructions in
+ INSTALL_parallel for building on Hopper.

+Issue 3:
+* On hopper, the build failed when RUNSERIAL and RUNPARALLEL are set
+ to aprun -np X, because the H5lib_settings.c file was not generated
+ properly. Not setting those environment variables works, because
+ configure was able to automatically detect that it's a Cray system
+ and used the proper launch commands when necessary.
