mpi-serial configure.in and autoconf 2.69

[rljacob]

After generating a configure from mpi-serial/configure.in with autoconf 2.69, an error occurs:

checking for ranlib... ranlib
configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh ./../config.sub
configure: error: ./configure failed for mpi-serial

autoconf 2.68 works fine.

rob,

it looks like "config.sub" is something in the top-level MCT autoconf setup...
if you're invoking it from the top-level MCT, i didn't yet look into
disconnecting it there...

for autoconf and configure of the new mpi-serial, just
go into the mpi-serial subdir and do it there... autoconf; configure; make

The only place I have autoconf 2.69 is my mac laptop. That might be the problem but I got the same error.
