The attached patch should fix the problem. I'm surprised that this only shows up with MPICH. Basically, I was passing 0 instead of 0d0 to a BLAS subroutine.
BTW, if anyone is willing/interested in testing RISM in NAB with MPICH the library to link to is libfmpich.a:
export XTRA_FLIBS=-lfmpich
and then
./configure -mpi -rismmpi compiler
