This looks a lot like what happens when you do not pass the
--with-mpi flag to configure.

If you installed openmpi in /usr/local, for example, then you should
run configure with '--with-mpi=/usr/local' 

You can also set environment variables so that configure can find your
MPI compilers. 

If you are still having problems, please send your full configure
command.
