Again, it's not the kernel that needs to support MPI. I'm not sure of the best way to check whether you've got an MPI implementation installed, but one way would be to do a "locate mpi.h" and see what that gives you. On the systems I use for my work, we've got MPICH installed and doing "locate mpi.h" gives me the following:
/opt/mpich/include/mpi.h
/usr/include/dfftw_mpi.h
/usr/include/drfftw_mpi.h
/usr/include/H5FDmpi.h
/usr/include/sfftw_mpi.h
/usr/include/srfftw_mpi.h
/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.1.2/include/jvmpi.h
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0_update14/include/jvmpi.h
/usr/src/linux-2.6.18.8-0.9/drivers/message/fusion/lsi/mpi.h
You could of course just ask your system administrator, though.
