[mpich-discuss] MPICH2 config hangs

I don't exactly know what went wrong.  AC_HEADER_STDC should trigger a test to look
for EGREP in mpich2's main configure.  But your c.txt indicates that the various
*GREP tests are not carried out before AC_HEADER_STDC in main configure.

For now, can you configure as follows:

configure --disable-f77 --disable-fc --enable-timer-type=gettimeofday ac_cv_path_EGREP="/usr/bin/grep -E" --prefix=....

Let us know if that works.
