YOu are running into the same problem that Christian mentioned on the list
yesterday, with some bogus main() declarations in the configure tests.
You can either try the LAM 7.1.5 beta available on the LAM/MPI web site or
switch to another MPI (I'd recommend Open MPI, as all the LAM developers
are currently working on it instead of LAM).
