Nice catch Marlee!
Shame we have to remove this check, hopefully the ifx/glibc/whatever interaction is triggering this is fixed in the future.
…nux; needed to compiler with later versions ifx

Description:
Please provide a summary of the change and include any relevant motivation and context.
DART fails to compile with the more recent versions of ifx on Derecho due to a DART-independent error from the Memory Sanitizer in the libc. This error occurs when compiling any program with ifx and the compiler flag "-check uninit", which is done by default when using the debugging flags in the mkmf.template
This PR adds a new debugging flag "-check nouninit" to mkmf.tempate.ifx.linux to get around this compiler based error.
This means that the DART code is not checked for unitialized values when debugging with ifx. This is noted in the mkmf.template
