[mpich-discuss] Error "hydra requires VA_ARGS support", RHEL 5.10, icc

[Balaji, Pavan]

Note for MPICH developers: It’ll be good to figure out what exactly changed between 3.0.4 and 3.1 that is causing this.  My understanding is that this check for warnings has been there in MPICH for a long time.
