Thanks!
That explains why I could not find it in the package :) Yes it is in float.h. This Cray is screwy. Y'all put the include at the top of the file but it seems to have forgotten a few hundred lines later. Thanks agan.

It should have been defined in <float.h>. Is that include file not found? You 
might check to ensure it was defined there.

Hi,
  I am sorry to bother everyone.  I have had no trouble building 1.6.3 with the 
Intel compiler. Now I am having to repeat the exercise for GNU.  In 
opal/util/arch.h (about line 260) is the function below. I am getting an error 
that LDBL_MANT_DIG is not declared.  I can not seem to find where it is 
declared.  Any hints would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    uint32_t* pui = (uint32_t*)(void*)&ld;

    j = LDBL_MANT_DIG / 32;

Function is described:
/* we must find which representation of long double is used
* intel or sparc. Both of them represent the long doubles using a close to
* IEEE representation (seeeeeee..emmm...m) where the mantissa look like
* 1.????. For the intel representaion the 1 is explicit, and for the sparc
* the first one is implicit. If we take the number 2.0 the exponent is 1
* and the mantissa is 1.0 (the sign of course should be 0). So if we check
* for the first one in the binary representation of the number, we will
* find the bit from the exponent, so the next one should be the begining
* of the mantissa. If it's 1 then we have an intel representaion, if not
* we have a sparc one. QED
