The $AMBERHOME/src/Machines/mpi/mpif.h file is irrelevant (and that whole
directory really doesn't need to be there anymore...)

The system is really looking for /usr/include/mpif.h. My guess is that it
is not there, because you don't have MPI installed on your machine. You
need to either get MPI from SGI, or install MPICH and use Machine.sgi_mpich.
