Two WPS code bug. (the DM_FC &DM_CC option, metgrid.exe)

[jianglizhi]

Hello, I would like to report a issue which exists for a period.

When I selected the compile option 19

19. Linux x86_64, Intel compiler (dmpar)

and tried to compile with intel compiler,
there are ususally comes out an compile error. From the compile output, I know that the error are ususally come from the gfortran compiler.
After checks, I confirmed that the DM_FC and DM_CC option should be specific as below:

DM_FC = mpif90 -f90=$(SFC)
DM_CC = mpicc -cc=$(SCC)

configure.wps

since the default mpi interface usually linked to gnu-compilers, the mpi interface should specific explicitly.

I highly urge that the comfigure template file "arch/configure.defaults " should be upgraded and change the options form
DM_FC = mpif90
DM_CC = mpicc
into
DM_FC = mpif90 -f90=$(SFC)
DM_CC = mpicc -cc=$(SCC)

pnetCDF capability for WPS

Hi all, I have a very large domain with 5000x5000 grid points and want to create met_em files using ECMWF IFS input data with a large number of vertical levels making things even more difficult... Creating met_em files works but takes a lot of I/O time with io_form_metgrid = 2 writing out...
