Hi,
I've configured mpich2 on linux with:

--prefix=/usr/local/mpich2-smpd' '--with-mpe' '--with-pmi=smpd'
'--with-pm=smpd' '--with-device=ch3:ssm' '--enable-sharedlibs=gcc'"

However when linking I get a lot of missing symbols, smpd_XXXX.

nm libmpich.so gives
...
U smpd_add_command_arg
U smpd_add_command_int_arg
U smpd_create_command
U smpd_create_context
U smpd_dbg_printf
U smpd_dbs_create
U smpd_dbs_create_name_in
U smpd_dbs_destroy
U smpd_dbs_finalize
U smpd_dbs_first
U smpd_dbs_get
U smpd_dbs_init
U smpd_dbs_next
U smpd_dbs_put
U smpd_enter_at_state
U smpd_init_process
U smpd_post_read_command
U smpd_post_write_command
U smpd_process
...


libmpich.a seems to contain all the smpd_XXX.o files.

Is there an issue with shared libs and smpd or is this a bug?

Regards
James
