[mpich-discuss] statically linked mpiexec

[Kenneth Raffenetti]

Ah, sorry. I misread your first email and assumed you were only talking 
about the MPICH libraries and compiler wrappers.

The Intel compilers should accept a '-static' flag that will force link 
all libraries statically. Try adding it to your CFLAGS to force this 
behavior on mpiexec.
