Bug#848574: openmpi: frequent segfault in linker on mips64el

Package: libopenmpi-dev
Version: 2.0.2~git.20161225-8
Severity: important

[ CC'ed debian-mips@ as a segfault in the linker might not be a bug in MPI ]

OpenMPI crashed frequenly in the runtime linker on mips64el, even for a
trivial program calling just MPI_Init and MPI_Finalize:

+---
| #include <mpi.h>
|
| int main(int argc, char** argv)
| {
|   MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);
|   MPI_Finalize();
|   return 0;
| }
+---[ test.cc ]

After building with `mpic++ -o test test.cc`, I often get the following
backtrace from the core file:

+---
| Core was generated by `./test'.
| Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
| #0  elf_machine_runtime_link_map (gpreg=<optimized out>, stub_pc=1099310712688)

| #2  0x000000fff5e341ac in _dl_runtime_resolve () from /lib64/ld.so.1
| Backtrace stopped: frame did not save the PC
+---[ backtrace from `gdb ./test core` ]

I noticed as src:dune-common/2.5.0-1 failed on mips64el even though the last
upload build sucessfully.
