Hi all,

I got the following error when I try to build petsc on mac os x 10.8
(mountain lion)  --- it failed at MPICH:

This error is confusing since there are a bunch of warnings without an
error message.  My configuration options are

./configure
--prefix=/Users/aeronova/Development/local/lib/petsc/3.3-p2-real
--download-mpich=1 --download-blacs=1 --download-metis=1
--download-parmetis=1 --download-scalapack=1 --download-mumps=1
--download-umfpack=1 --with-clanguage=C++

I'd appreciate it if anyone can help me with this error.

Regards,
K. Lee.
