Hello Bryan.  It appears that something is preventing hwloc from
building properly.  Can you send us the config.log from within the
src/pm/hydra directory?  Can you also try by replacing --with-pm=hydra
by --with-pm=mpirun?  This should help you to move forward while we're
debugging the original issue (assuming you don't depend on the hydra
launcher and can use mpirun_rsh).
