PAPI defines global functions and variables without PAPI_ prefix
Issue #1741
closed
In its stats.c source file (which gets compiled into the thorn), PAPI defines several globally visible symbols, eg:
void outinfo(const char *const function)
...
int num_threads;
which are not prefixed with the thorn name so possibly conflict with other thorns. According to the Cactus user guide http://einsteintoolkit.org/documentation/UsersGuide/UsersGuidech9.html#x13-144000C1.9.7 users are suggested to prefix them by the thorn name (or put into a C++ namespace) to avoid conflicts.

See "stats.h":
This is just a local short-cut to make code more readable.
