Make sure the mpicc commands are in your path. Most likely the permissions
are too restrictive on the commands. Make sure they're all group/world read
& execute (I set them with chmod 755 ...)

As for XCode, I cheat. Since I build multi-platform, I use CMake or SCons.
In one case, I setup XCode as an external compile project, and then use
scons as the compile command. And since you're using "import" you must be
compiling in Objective-C, of which, I can provide no assistance
(c/c++/python).
