You have a bunch of link errors when building MPICH:

gfortran: warning: couldn't understand kern.osversion '15.4.0

It looks to me like you have bad configuration of your compiler/linker
toolchain. Something is rotten in the state of gfortran.
I suggest configuring without Fortran, --with-fc=0. If you need Fortran,
you might have to build MPICH yourself, or fix your
gfortran.

  Thanks,

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
