Many thanks for your reply. I've checked
again and the FSF code is in the configure files, so it's probably machine
generated. In that case, it is unimportant for me.
I'll look forward for the update.
BTW, are you keeping a list of papers
which use MPICH2? In that case, I'll be happy to contribute some.
Regards,
Elad
