[MPICH] installing on sun. config.log attached

[Rajeev Thakur]

I don't know what's going on. The configure script is unable to compile a
simple test program. Can you create a small dummy C program and see if it
compiles and runs with cc. Otherwise, just do a fresh untar of the tar file
and try again. We routinely build on a Solaris platform, so I don't know
what's happening here.
