I uploaded this change to Debian's openmpi packages yesterday,

Jeff: will you commit this upstream?
Fakeroot maintainer: will you set
OMPI_MCA_disable_memory_allocator to 1
in the fakeroot environment?
Perhaps it would be better if you had debian/rules check to see if
$FAKEROOTKEY is set and then export
OMPI_MCA_disable_memory_allocator in that case.
Perhaps, though I don't see any benefit to this approach rather than
always setting the variable. Can you elaborate?
Two things:
1. Doh; I suggested a poorly-named environment variable. For reasons
you don't care about, "OMPI_MCA_memory_ptmalloc2_disable" would be a
better name for us (vs. "OMPI_MCA_disable_memory_allocator"). Sorry
about that! I just committed the check for
"OMCA_MCA_memory_ptmalloc2_disable" upstream:
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/changeset/21479
2. If you want a more general env variable name, like checking for the
presence of $FAKEROOTKEY (or whatever), let me know and we can also
add a check for that upstream. To be clear, I think I'm going to do
#1 anyway -- it's a nice way for our users to disable this stuff. But
I'm not opposed to having a fakeroot-specific environment variable
check as well.
