[FLASH-BUGS] configuration MPICH

[Katherine M Riley]

Have you tested mpich to make sure it works properly?  You can try the
example in the examples/ directory of the source tree.  Also - make
sure the intel compiler works alright.  I have had issues with the
compiler on rh9. 

It sounds like either your compiler is installed incorrectly or mpich
is incorrectly installed because '-c' is one of the most standard
options.  It tells to compiler just to create an object file.
