Are you using mpicc / mpicxx for compilation and linking? If you are,
there shouldn't be any 'sorting out the flags' required (insofar as
linking to or including the mpi headers & lib)...

It looks like it thinks it is making an executable (hence the need for
main) rather than a library... I don't know enough (anything) about
SPRNG, but it looks like it should be building a library from the
'Installing Default SPRNG Libraries' section on the home page... You
might have better contacting them ( sprng at cs.fsu.edu) at this point.
