[MPICH2-dev] [patch] create valid default defmsg.h if building one fails

[Ashley Pittman]

Hi,

We've hit a bug several times now where we add error codes to the source
without writing a long description for it, this in turn causes
maint/extracterrmsgs to fail (as it should) but the fallback defmsg.h
that updatefiles creates is un-usable leading to compile errors later
on.

This patch causes the fallback file to be generated properly.  It's
tested in so much as the code compiles but I haven't tried running any
code with it yet, I'll let you know the results of the testsuite
tomorrow.

Ashley,
