The output below occurred testing Jeff's no-embedded-libltdl tarball, but I am assuming in quite likely the same is true on the trunk.
The "issue" is that I am told by configure that "C and C++ compilers are not link compatible". However, it appears I just don't have a C++ compiler at all!! I am not sure (and too lazy/busy to re-read README) if Open MPI currently requires a C++ compiler, but that certainly appears to be the case. If that is *not* the intent, then this issue is bigger than a misleading error message.
