So I got around this problem by building a 64bit version of libsysfs from
the src rpm. However now during the "make all install" phase the compilation
is dying on a bunch of incompatibilities. As it states those files are 32bit
and I need the 64bit ppc version. Not sure why they are being built as 32
bit since I have CFLAGS and LDFLAGS set. Is there something I am missing ?
(those files are built by the make)

Hello,
I have been trying to get openmpi to install (./configure
--prefix=/opt/ompi --with-openib=/usr/local/ofed) using various methods on
rhel4 u3 ppc64. No matter what method I use when I try to build 64bit (32bit
works) it fails while searching for sysfs. I know that redhat only
distributes sysfsutils (which supplies libsysfs.so.1.0.2) in 32bit format.
I was wondering if there was a workaround for this problem. I have been
unable to find a ppc64 version of libsysfs. The error is contained in the
attached log. Here is a summary:
--- MCA component btl:openib (m4 configuration macro)
checking for MCA component btl:openib compile mode... dso
checking for sysfs_open_class in -lsysfs... no
configure: error: OpenIB support requested but required sysfs not found.
Aborting
Regards.
