The original question seemed specific to the Fortran interface for 
MPI_PCONTROL.  Would it be possible to keep the C interface, either as 
is or modified as suggested above, but delete the Fortran interface for 
this routine?  That solves the immediate issue.

I would argue that the few people who use this routine are "expert 
users" who would have little trouble writing their own MY_PCONTROL, 
written in C but callable from Fortran that had whatever interoperable 
arguments were desired, and internally called the C MPI_Pcontrol 
function.

Cheers,
Bill
