Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. echo sci-libs/hdf5 >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
2. USE="mpi" emerge hdf5

The workaround would be to sync up and emerge the new mpich2-1.0.3 ebuild
first.  Then you can emerge hdf5 successfully.  I'm working on getting some of
this stuff stablized, but it's a long chain of deps, portage is getting
pickier, and many of these sci-codes don't seem to do shared libs quite
right...

The latest HDF5 (1.6.5-r1) has working tests now, and most of the MPI tests
pass (using the provided mpd.conf in the portage build tree, but only using the
local build host and no virtual filesystem).  It also has fortran 9x support,
both detection and a USE flag to enable it; I'm open to suggestions on
improvements (but we currently only have ebuild support for gfortran (gcc4) and
ifc).

I haven't worked on any other MPI packages, so the above only applies to
mpich2-1.0.3-r1, which must also be built with f90 support for the HDF5 f90
stuff to build against it correctly (and possibly 1.0.3 if it correctly
detected your f90 compiler).

Please try the updated ebuilds (both hdf5-1.6.5-r1 and mpich2-1.0.3-r1) and
file any new bugs accordingly; you can avoid the "virtual/mpi" pulling in other
packages by just emerging mpich2 with the desired USE flags prior to emerging
hdf5.

Note: the mpich2 internal tests are not yet enabled (feel free to work on it
tho :)
