thanks

I have replaced mpic++.$(ARCH_DEFAULT_MPI_IMPL) by 
mpicxx.$(ARCH_DEFAULT_MPI_IMPL), which is provided by both OpenMPI and 
MPICH, in the gyoto rules file.

I still think the original assumption to be able to use 
mpic++.$(ARCH_DEFAULT_MPI_IMPL) was reasonable. MPICH does use the 
alternative system to provide mpic++, which is good, but a package build 
system should not rely on it.

Cheers, Thibaut.
