You may want to look at the 'March 2005 configuration update for PMEMD'.
The config files for pmemd are different than the ones used by all the rest
of amber, mostly in that more aggressive optimization is sometimes used.
However, I think that for pathscale compilers, chances are good that the
compilers options/libraries listed here will get you started (I think that
pathscale is easy in that you don't need to reference the compiler libraries
explicitly); you should of course leave out the pmemd optimization defines
(-D...), though I doubt that including them is harmful. I found pathscale
to be very easy to use and solid.
