Darn. The patch is incorrect. Sorry, too sleepy. It should be checking for $ac_prog_cc_c99 instead. But you get the idea.

I understand that hwloc requires C99 support. However, for compilers that don't support C99, would you be willing to gracefully abort during configure instead of failing at make time?

I agree that most compilers today probably support C99, but whether to drop C89-only support is a policy decision we are yet to make in MPICH2, and will need the above patch to get hwloc integrated cleanly in all our supported environments.
