The real reason for the problem is probably in the associated message 
in the config.log file.  Could you send us the config.log you get when
this error is encountered?

It may be a problem with library paths, in which the configure script looks
in the wrong place for the run time libraries associated with the blrts_xlc
compiler you have specified.  It may require setting your LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable to make sure the right libraries are located.

Thanks.
