Yes, 2.1.0p0 builds a single libtorque.so to get rid of the poorly named
static archives (too many clashes with libnet.a and liblog.a).  It also
installs a pbs-config script in $prefix/bin to help 3rd party programs
like mpiexec with the correct include and link args.

As of mpiexec-0.81, it should find pbs-config and get the correct link
args.  Either make sure pbs-config is in your $PATH or pass the path to
configure.
