./configure LDFLAGS="-notpath ... ... ..."

-notpath should be replaced by whatever the proper flag should be, in my case -L<path> ? 

No, it looks like ld is being called with the option -path, and your
linker doesn't use that switch. Grep you Makefile(s) for the string
"-path". It's probably in a statement defining LDFLAGS somewhere.

When you find it, replace it with the equivalent switch for your
compiler. You may be able to override it's value on the configure
command-line, which is usually easiest/best:

./configure LDFLAGS="-notpath ... ... ..."

    am I doing this wrong? are any of those configure flags unnecessary

        Hi Nehemiah
        I just answered your email to the OpenMPI list.
        I want to add that if you build OpenMPI with Torque support,
        the machine file for each is not needed, it is provided by Torque.
        I believe the same is true for SGE (but I don't use SGE).
