Installing Rmpi on 64-bit Linux Athlon

No, both of you are not doing it correctly - you are confused about 
linker problem with runtime issue. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is a runtime
flag. You want to set the linker flag to influence the linker behavior:

setenv LDFLAGS="-L$prefix/lib -L$prefix/lib64"

or edit the makefile or Makevars do the equivalent with PKG_LDFLAGS
in the Rmpi package.

BTW, the syntax for using LD_LIBRARY_PATH is also wrong - to use it the 
way it is intended, you need:

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "$prefix/lib:$prefix/lib64"
