Subject: Re: [OMPI devel] CM PML / OpenSHMEM

I think the issue that may have caused this was the need for a double modex if 
the MPI layer selected a PML that used an MTL, and then the user provided 
oshmem MCA params specifying they use the BTL-related SPML component. My guess 
is that the defaults wound up creating that situation, which then led to the 
clean abort.

Probably just a question of correctly setting defaults in the CM scenario.
