2.2.2 is out since April 1st, and has seen a number of fixes since. We hope to do 2.2.4 soon, but of course if you try it out before then any eventual remaining issues may be fixed before that. FWIW I've been building OMPI with development versions of autotools all the time (but only tested on GNU/Linux/x86). > Additionally, Ralf W. recomends to us that we should also upgrade > Autoconf to 2.62 or later.

Yes you need GNU m4 1.4.5 or newer. m4 1.4.11 and Autoconf 2.62 speed up auto* and config.status run time, respectively. For the latter, we used OMPI as test bed application, see the first set of timings in: <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.autoconf.patches/3985> Cheers, Ralf
