Additional info:
Mr. Gropp of MPICH group informed me than bswap_32 is not a 
symbol in MPICH.  This is probably an error in the Intel
compiler or an incompatibility between the system header 
files on RedHat and the Intel compiler.
A member of the Intel compiler user group onformed me that
it might be the problem of the version of glibc under RH8.0.
