[Coin-ipopt] Problems with MUMPS

Hi Jens,

This is a strange error.  It seems that some compiled files are out of 
date?  (The dependency check of header files unforunately doesn't work 
with the NSVC compilers...)

Could you please do a 'make distclean', followed by a 'configure' and then 
'make install' again?  If that doesn't help, please open a ticket at the 
Ipopt project's page and attach the config.log file FROM THE Ipopt 
subdirectory (not from the directory in which you run configure).

Thanks,

Andreas
