Hi,

PGI compiler since 2017 has changed their default version output.

Before 2017:
$ pgcc -V

pgcc 16.9-0 64-bit target on x86-64 Linux -tp sandybridge
The Portland Group - PGI Compilers and Tools
Copyright (c) 2016, NVIDIA CORPORATION.  All rights reserved.

After 2017:
$ pgcc -V

pgcc 17.5-0 64-bit target on x86-64 Linux -tp sandybridge
PGI Compilers and Tools
Copyright (c) 2017, NVIDIA CORPORATION.  All rights reserved.

This caused configure script unable to detect compiler correctly, when it is in a wrapper such as mpicc.

Patch:
