[mpich-discuss] MPL configure errors on Gadzooks

I spoke with Jeff about this offline and we got him sorted out.  The  
problem was that he pulled the source down using SVN-1.3.1, which  
doesn't the relative path "svn:externals" specifications.  Using 1.5  
or later fixes this problem.

I'll add a sanity check to help catch this problem in a less confusing  
way in the future.
