mpicc is only one theory for the problem, as I explain deep in the 
thread Justin linked. Try configuring without --enable-mpi to test 
Justin's theory. You providing us with more information about your 
system and OS would help us diagnose.

Also, you should spend your time installing the latest GROMACS, not one 
from months ago.
