The SRPM is probably your best bet -- glad you got it working.
 
As for the errors, it's because these are C++ files.  You need to also
set CXXFLAGS to the flags necessary to compile in 64 bit mode (and
F77FLAGS and FCFLAGS for Fortran 77 and 90, if you're building those
bindings).
 
Hope that helps.

        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:
