Unfortunately, I jumped the gun with my question.  I figured out my
problem soon after by just reading further down the INSTALL file:

        Due to a change in gcc (since version 2.8) the MPI stuff may
        not build. In this case try to run configure using:
            CFLAGS="-g -O2 -mcpu=powerpc" ./configure

Perhaps since this is known about it could be included in the configure?
