What was the error message for MPICH?  Was it a library problem, or
something with GCC 3.2 and MPICH?

Anyway, back to the original problem - we pretty much have to ship two
versions of the MPI implementations.  The ABI for C++ changed so
drastically between 2.95 and 3.{0,1,2} that you have to compile the entire
C++ stack with the same compiler.  Suckage, but reportedly the GCC group
is going to stabalize the ABI for a while...  I don't believe it, of
course :).
