Build error: bad reloc address

Question

I am trying to build IPopt with MKL blas on a 64 bit machine using MingW 64, I can go through the configure process using the command below:

../configure ADD_FFLAGS=-fopenmp --with-blas="-L/c/intel/COMPOS~1/mkl/lib/intel64 \
-lmkl_intel_lp64_dll -lmkl_intel_thread_dll -lmkl_core_dll -Wl,\
--rpath,/c/intel/COMPOS~1/mkl/lib/intel64" \
--with-lapack="-L/c/intel/COMPOS~1/mkl/lib/intel64 \
-lmkl_intel_lp64_dll -lmkl_intel_thread_dll -lmkl_core_dll -Wl,\
--rpath,/c/intel/COMPOS~1/mkl/lib/intel64"

and I get successful configuration message, However when I try to proceed with "make" I get an error as below:

g++ -O3 -pipe -DNDEBUG -pedantic-errors -Wparentheses -Wreturn-type -Wcast-qual

I would be thankful if somebody could help with it.

Follow Up: I think I found what the error stems from, when running configure, it goes back to the shared library of MKL and gets its path as (available in the configure log file):

/c/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Intel/Shared Libraries/redist/intel64/compiler

which indeed its not a short path! so I guess this is raising the problem but I don't know how to force configure get short path! In addition, I am using Windows 8 64 bit, despite enabling 8.3 naming convention (Reg. Key set to 0) still I only get 8.3 name for some directories for example I don't get short path for Program Files and Program Files (x86).

Answer 1

Simple answer: Intel MKL for windows does not provide compatibility with gnu compilers available with MingW! Switched to OpenBlas and it was sorted.

Special Thanks goes to Tony Kelman.
