I think that the missing configure option might be the problem as well. The BLCR configure logic checks to see if you have enabled checkpoint/restart in Open MPI. If you haven't then it fails out of configure (probably should print a better error message - I'll put that on my todo list).

The configure flag that you are looking for is:
 --with-ft=cr

So try the following and let me know if that fixes the problem for you:
./configure --with-ft=cr --with-blcr=/opt/blcr --with-blcr-libdir=/ opt/blcr/lib --prefix=/opt/openmpi

Some of the configure options and runtime options are discussed in the Checkpoint/Restart in Open MPI User's Guide which you can find linked at the bottom of the following wiki page:
  https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/ProcessFT_CR

You may also want to consider using the thread options too for improved C/R response:
  --enable-mpi-threads --enable-ft-thread

Best,
Josh

This is strange, as both /opt/blcr and /opt/blcr/lib are sensibly populated:

I ran into this recently.  You need an extra flag which I forget, but
./configure --help will show it can take `LAM' as an argument. It seems
pretty obscure and probably deserves a report I haven't had time to
make.
