[mpich2-dev] MPICH2 BGQ src/mpix/armci autoconf fails

[Anthony Chan]

See http://trac.mcs.anl.gov/projects/mpich2/changeset/9911/mpich2/trunk/src/mpix/armci/configure.ac

You are using automake 1.12, try either downgrading it to 1.11 or
add the m4 ifdef in armci's configure.ac.

PS.  I suppose you ain't using autoreconf directly or maint/updatefiles.
Does BGQ's mpich2 come with a build script ?
