Description
Building ior-3.3 --with-lustre correctly identifies lustreapi.h, but parse_options.c only checks for HAVE_LUSTRE_LUSTRE_USER_H. This causes ior to build, link against liblustre, then refuse to honor lustre-specific options.
I haven't checked to see if this works in newer IORs, but it should be fixed in ior-3.3.1.

Research direction
Start in parse_options.c and inspect the --with-lustre detection around lustreapi.h and HAVE_LUSTRE_LUSTRE_USER_H. Build IOR with --with-lustre against a newer Lustre installation, then verify that Lustre-specific options are honored rather than rejected; the issue is done when detection and option handling agree.
