OpenMPI thread support not working

[justus.c79@…]

When building openmpi +gcc45+threads I see the following output (with verbose mode) in the configure step.

$ sudo port -v install openmpi +gcc45+threads

Specifically I see: configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-xgrid, --enable-mpi-threads, which indicated OpenMPI is not being built with thread support.

--enable-mpi-threads is added with the +threads variant.

The behavior of OpenMPI configure script has changed. The new option that should be used is: --enable-mpi-thread-multiple This has the same effect as the old threads configure option. See ​http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2010/03/7531.php

Also, in the above link, it says has been renamed --enable-progress-threads to --enable-opal-progress-threads. I have not checked the progress threads variant yet, but it probably needs to be updated too.

Fix the configure options for +threads and +progressthreads

Has duplicate #33320.

Looking at the portfile, it seems like this has already been fixed.
