[Wien] WIEN2k_COMPILER issue with WIEN2k 19.1

[Gavin Abo]

Yes, for serial build, the third line could be empty as

parallel:

Regarding libxc, that is library that gives you access to many more 
functionals that you can use with WIEN2k.  There are 400 of them 
according to [ https://doi.org/10.1016/j.softx.2017.11.002 ].

The libxc website [ http://www.tddft.org/programs/Libxc ] appears to be 
not working right now.  However, look on it for its list of functionals 
when it is working again.

Also, some of the libxc information in the WIEN2k 19.1 usersguide can be 
found in section "7.1.3 Input" on page 120 [ 
http://susi.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/reg_user/textbooks/usersguide.pdf ].
