Thanks for the bug report. We should probably cleanup the reporting of this type of error. I think someone was looking into the "*** The MPI_Init() function was called before MPI_INIT was invoked." issue since it came up in a different bug report.
But I'll file a ticket on this so when we get back into the code we can try to address it. https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/2841 Thanks, Josh On Fri, Jul 22, 2011 at 8:30 PM, Paul H.
