You mean 6.1.2?

I reproduced your error, it seems to be an issue of icc compiler. Using 
gcc it works fine.
With icc you should disable optimizations, I used the following comman line:

./build charm++ mpi-linux-x86_64-mvapich icc -O -I<path to mpi>/include 
-L<path to mpi>/lib --no-build-shared




Then I resume the charm++ compilation process for the mailinglist:

cd src/arch
cp -r mpi-linux-x86_64 mpi-linux-x86_64-mvapich
cd mpi-linux-x86_64-mvapich

Edit conv-mach.h and change (not necessary in Charm++ 6.1.2):

#define CMK_MALLOC_USE_GNU_MALLOC                          1
#define CMK_MALLOC_USE_OS_BUILTIN                          0

to:

#define CMK_MALLOC_USE_GNU_MALLOC                          0
#define CMK_MALLOC_USE_OS_BUILTIN                          1

Make sure the MVAPICH mpicc and mpiCC are first in your path. Otherwise, 
add the full path to the mpicc and mpiCC commands in conv_mach.sh. If 
the “build” command does not recognize the mpiCC compiler you can to 
edit the conv-mach.sh file changing the line

MPICXX_DEF=mpicxx

to:

   #MPICXX_DEF=mpiCC
   MPICXX_DEF=mpicxx


cd ../../..
./build charm++ mpi-linux-x86_64-mvapich --no-build-shared

or for icc compiler:

./build charm++ mpi-linux-x86_64-mvapich icc -O -I<path to mpi>/include 
-L<path to mpi>/lib --no-build-shared
