Add MPICH-2, an implementation of the Message-Passing Interface (MPI).

The goals of MPICH2 are to provide an MPI implementation for important
platforms, including clusters, SMPs, and massively parallel processors.
It also provides a vehicle for MPI implementation research and for
developing new and better parallel programming environments.

MPICH2 replaces MPICH1 and should be used instead of MPICH1 except for
the case of clusters with heterogeneous data representations.

Note: some regression tests fail with Fortran 90, but the problem has
been solved in 1.0.4-rc1, and 1.0.4 should be available RSN.

-MPICH is a portable implementation of the MPI (Message Passing
-Interface) standard. The goal of MPI, simply stated, is to develop a
-widely used standard for writing message-passing programs. As such the
-interface should establish a practical, portable, efficient, and
-flexible standard for message passing. Included are a full set of
-documents and parallel programming examples.
