To avoid this... if you are not needing to compile any fortran then you can just use the MPI that comes with OSX (OpenMP). Just set CC, CXX, etc to mpicc, mpicxx etc for both PetsC and libMesh... and don't tell PetsC to download mpich.
Note that we don't typically work this way. We usually download a third party MPI (like MPICH2)... compile it and install it somewhere on our system... then set our path and compiler environment variables to point to this location and compile both PetsC and libMesh with it. This has the nice property that it is a bit more reusable across multiple packages you might be compiling on your system. So there are lots of options....
