I will look if the release candidate for 3.1.6 has still that issue.
3.1.5 had another larger warning that I silenced and that was due
to an upstream bug that has been solved.
This warning passed below my radar after I solved the bigger one.

Unfortunately OpenMPI takes age to build so do not expect any
too early..
