Okay, I fixed this up for you on the devel trunk:
Ralph:ompi-trunk rhc$ orterun -n 3 -mca notifier hnp foo
Job Ralph:10628 terminated abnormally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
orterun was unable to find the specified executable file, and therefore
did not launch the job. This error was first reported for process
rank 0; it may have occurred for other processes as well.
NOTE: A common cause for this error is misspelling a orterun command
line parameter option (remember that orterun interprets the first
unrecognized command line token as the executable).
Node: Ralph
Executable: foo
