I am confused -- you talk about passing uncaught exceptions back to processes waiting for messages, and then you talk about preventing deadlock situations in a seemingly different scenario. Perhaps you would like to show some code examples? I don't know who is this "process-management model" and why I care about it, but I would like to see some examples of actual working code that cannot be reproduced with the MPI library.
