From the mpich version I guess that you use myrinet gm interface. Make
sure that you load the gm library in the amber MACHINE file.
I have pretty much the same setup, which is running fine at my site.
Below the first part of my MACHINE file for parallel sander.
setenv AMBERHOME /home/flb/amber7
setenv MPICH_HOME /usr/local/mpich-1.2.1..7b
setenv MPICH_INCLUDE $MPICH_HOME/include
setenv MPICH_LIBDIR $MPICH_HOME/lib
setenv MPICH_LIB mpich
setenv GM_LIBDIR /usr/local/gm-1.5.1/lib
setenv GM_LIB gm
#
setenv MACHINE "linux/FreeBSD PC"
setenv MACH Linux
setenv MACHINEFLAGS " -DMPI"
# CPP is the cpp for this machine
setenv CPP "/lib/cpp -traditional -I$MPICH_INCLUDE"
# SYSDIR is the name of the system-specific source directory relative to
src/*/
setenv SYSDIR Machines/standard
# LOADER/LINKER:
setenv LOAD "g77 -O3 -march=athlon-mp"
setenv LOADCC "gcc -O3 -march=athlon-mp"
setenv LOADLIB "-lm -L$MPICH_LIBDIR -l$MPICH_LIB -L$GM_LIBDIR -l$GM_LIB"
setenv G77_COMPAT "-fno-globals -ff90 -funix-intrinsics-hide"
setenv OPT "-O3 -march=athlon-mp -malign-double -ffast-math"

new2oldparm is not a parallel application. Change into the /src/sander
directory and compile only sander for mpi.

For this you first need a mpich version compiled with pgf77. In the
MACHINE file you then also need to refer to the pgf libraries.
