That doesn't make a whole lot of sense; what compile / link line is resulting in that error message? The error message is saying that libmpi.so depends on an Intel built-in function, but since you built libmpi.so with gcc, that shouldn't happen. Are you sure that libmpi.so wasn't build against the Intel compilers?
