I don't know anything about MVAPICH, so this is really a wild guess, but it is
at least worth trying: sander.MPI needs to be run under the control of
"mpirun". It calls mpi_init() etc. before processing any command-line flags.
So you should at least try something like
mpirun -np 1 sander.MPI -help
I assume(?) you also tried obvious things like "make test.parallel". And that
you have run the MPI test cases that are probably supplied with the MVAPICH
distribution, or otherwise know that your MPI implementation is working.
Information along these lines would be helpful, but you may have to compile
with traceback turned on to get much useful information.
Others with specific experience with Infiniband may wish to chime in here....
...good luck...dac
