With GCC's link time optimization, the compiler ends up seeing two declarations of MCA component structures. One in the component itself, which has potentially a component-specific type, and one in static-components.h, which is just declared as a base MCA component struct. The compiler doesn't like this. This patch adds a level of indirection used by the static component lookup code. static-components.h now declares the existance of a mca_component_t * and the list is of pointers to pointers. The MCA base framework has to do an extra dereference, but this is only in the initialization path. We also then have to have the actual pointer exist, so add a macro MCA_BASE_COMPONENT_INIT that we need to add to every component definition to create the pointer (and perhaps do more initialization later).
