I am getting some undefined references in building OpenMPI 1.5.4 and I would 
like to know how to work around it.

The errors look like this:

/scratch1/bloscel/builds/release/openmpi-intel/lib/libmpi.a(topology-linux.o): 
In function `hwloc_linux_alloc_membind':
topology-linux.c:(.text+0x1da): undefined reference to `mbind'
topology-linux.c:(.text+0x213): undefined reference to `mbind'

topology-linux.c:(.text+0x831): undefined reference to `set_mempolicy'
make: *** [main] Error 1

Some  configure output that is probably relevant:

checking numaif.h usability... yes
checking numaif.h presence... yes
checking for numaif.h... yes
checking for set_mempolicy in -lnuma... yes
checking for mbind in -lnuma... yes
checking for migrate_pages in -lnuma... yes

The FAQ says that I should have to give -with-libnuma explicitly, but I did not 
do that.   Is there a problem with configure? Or the FAQ?  Or perhaps the 
system has a configuration peculiarity?

On another system, the configure output is different, and there are no 
unresolved references:

checking numaif.h usability... no
checking numaif.h presence... no
checking for numaif.h... no

What is the configure option that will make the unresolved references go away?

Thanks,

Ed
