Cool this sounds good enough to me.

THe function name changes are pretty obvious (s/mca_pml_base/ompi/),
and I thought I'd try something new and actually document the
interface in the header file :). So we should be good on that front.

I am ok with the following as long as we can have some sort of
documenation describing what changed like which old functions
are replaced with newer functions and any description of changed

Tim Prins brings up a point I keep meaning to ask the group about. A
long time ago in a galaxy far, far away (aka, last fall), Galen and I
started working on the BTL / PML redesign that morphed into some
smaller changes, including some interesting IB work. Anyway, I
rewrote large chunks of the modex, which did a couple of things:
* Moved the modex out of the pml base and into the general OMPI code
(renaming
the functions in the process)
* Fixed the hang if a btl doesn't publish contact information (we
wait until we
receive a key pushed into the modex at the end of MPI_INIT)
* Tried to reduce the number of required memory copies in the
interface
It's a fairly big change, in that all the BTLs have to be updated due
to the function name differences. It's fairly well tested, and would
be really nice for dealing with platforms where there are different
networks on different machines. If no one has any objections, I'll
probably do this next week...
