I'm not sure I understand the issue -- are you saying that gcc can't create
executables? I.e., does this not work:
-----
% cat > hello.c <<EOF
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
printf("Hello world\n");
return 0;
}
EOF
% gcc hello.c -o hello
% ./hello
Hello world
%

If that works, then you should just be able to do a default configure/make of
Open MPI. If it doesn't work -- e.g., if the "hello" executable that is
produced is not runnable on your machine, then you probably need to supply some
additional flags to gcc. Once you figure out what those flags are, pass the
same flags to Open MPI's configure.
I'd be pretty surprised if the default gcc build doesn't work for you (e.g.,
the "hello world" example, above), though.
