Just wanted to let everyone know we are making a minor change to some of
the tests in the intel test suite. There is a bug where the tests are
passing in a pointer rather then the address of a pointer to the
MPI_Buffer_detach call. Most of the time, this does not cause a problem
as we can see that these tests have been passing for years. However,
there are some cases on the 64-bit sparc platform where we get our
wonderful bus errors. Therefore, we plan to make this minor change to
several of the tests.
