Dries, We have built OpenMPI-1.0 with our compilers, but don't build SVN.
In your case you seem to have some kind of SUSE weirdness going on. Is it possible you have a gcc-3.3 compatibility package of some kind installed? We should probably take this conversation over to supp...@pathscale.com, but the next step is to try "pathcc -v hello.c", and also /usr/bin/gcc -E "foo bar" -- greg
