I get the same error. I'm attaching a complete log.

But mpich is very old. You may want the newer mpich2.

Note you do not need to Cc yourself.

Replying to josem.climate@…:

That's certainly possible; I'm not familiar with the mpich software. What did you find out?

Fixed the arch detection to do something more correct in r71401, but the build still fails for other reasons.
