I thought about this a bit, and I think that if we force Mandriva to
use our libaio-oscar RPM, this might work.
If I add:
BuildRequires: /usr/lib/libaio.so
Requires: /usr/lib/libaio.so
Would that do the trick? I'm *guessing* that BuildRequires can list a
file (vs. an RPM), just like Requires can. Does anyone know for sure?
This will force whoever builds the LAM RPM on Mandriva to have the
libaio-oscar RPM installed (or some libaio RPM) -- which is a good
thing. Specifically: aio will no longer be optional for the OSCAR LAM
RPM -- it will be specifically mandated.

Hey Jeff:
I noticed that we used to bundle libaio for Mandrake (libaio-oscar) -
would it help if this RPM can be installed on Mandriva Linux 10.0?
Cheers,
Bernard

Right Thing in Bernard's case: it is finding the libaio RPM, which
contains libaio.so.1.0.0. It is *not* finding the
libaio-devel RPM
(which contains libaio.so) because there is no requirement
to do so.
This tells me there *should* be a requires for libaio.so in the
package containing mpicc. That is, after all, what explicit
dependencies are for--cases where the auto-dependency scanner fails.
What about systems that do not have libaio? (like Mandriva)
