You can also try just launching "MPI hello world" (i.e., examples/hello_c.c).  
It just calls MPI_INIT / MPI_FINALIZE.

Additionally, you might want to try launching the ring program, too 
(examples/ring_c.c).  That program sends a small message around in a ring, 
which forces some MPI communication to occur, and therefore does at least some 
level of setup in the BTLs, etc. (remember: most BTLs are lazy-connect, so they 
don't actually do anything until the first send.  So a simple "ring" program 
sets up *some* BTL connections, but not nearly all of them).
