configure: error: No atomic primitives available for
alphaev56-unknown-linux-gnu

Has anyone of you an idea what I can do with this. Is the alpha platform
supported by openmpi?

Not at this time, no. I believe we have a half implemented, untested set of primitives for Alpha, so it would not take much effort to add them. If someone out in OMPI land has a machine they could give me access to, I can add this to the todo list.

Second we have an SGI Origin at our university. After unpacking, the
configure command runs without any problems. But a subsequent make gives

ln -s "../../opal/asm/generated/atomic-mips-irix.s" atomic-asm.s
/bin/sh ../../libtool --mode=compile gcc -O3 -DNDEBUG - fno-strict-aliasing -c -o atomic-asm.lo atomic-asm.s gcc -O3 -DNDEBUG -fno-strict-aliasing -c atomic-asm.s -DPIC - o .libs/atomic-asm.o as: Error: /atomic-asm.s, line 146: Not all branch-label symbols were defined as: Error: /atomic-asm.s, line 41: Label referenced but not defined: Lretry1
*** Error code 1 (bu21)

That shouldn't happen. I think I have access to a couple SGI boxes around here - I'll give that a whirl this afternoon. What version of IRIX was this on?
