[QE-users] Problem when running the pw.x executable

Why don't you trust the configure? The configure can cover most scenarios.
Most users should rely on the configure instead of modifying the make.inc
by hand.
Linux+OpenMP/IntelMPI+Intel compiler+MKL is very common and the configure
can handle it very well.
I can handle BG/Q or Cray machines without touch make.inc.
In your case, if you sourced the intel parallel studio environment script,
then only need
./configure MPIF90=mpif90 CC=icc --with-scalapack=intel
MPI is enabled by default, if you want openmp just add --enable-openmp.

To accelerate compilation, you can use -j with make. The parallel
compilation is well maintained at least for pw.
I never have issue with make -j 16 pw. For other target, you can try
parallel compilation but may have some dependency not well maintained.
