.libs is the temporary directory used under GNU/Linux and Mac OS X at
build time to store the shared library (.so, .dylib).
Your issue has been reported here:
http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12133
and I will see if I can fix it for 5.4.1.

About PVM, Paul, you can give it a try. PVM is a bit outdated and not
maintained. We are working on a MPI Scilab implementation which should
be better.

Otherwise, if you want to go into parallel, you can have a look to Diet:

or proactive:
