This is a problem with the Pathscale compiler and old versions of GCC. See:
http://www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=building#pathscale-broken-with-mpi-c%2B%2B-api
I note that you said you're already using GCC 4.x, but it's not clear from your
text whether pathscale is using that compiler or a different GCC on the
back-end. If you can confirm that pathscale *is* using GCC 4.x on the
back-end, then this is worth reporting to the pathscale support people.
