Hello ports@,

an article in a recent german publication persuaded me to finally try
out programming with MPI, thus I had to create a port of OpenMPI and
here it is.
Took a _while_ to figure out a very strange bug that occured because
configure did not accept OBSDs openpty and thus used a custom
(non-working) implementation instead.

Anyway please have a look at the patches because at least 3 are hackish,
because my knowledge of configure, auto{make,config} is limited and this
time I didn't find a clean way (setting --sysconfdir does not work).

There is one further problem:
OpenMPI includes a binary called otfinfo and texlive too, but they are
totally different programs, what would you suggest to resolve this
conflict? Renaming? Using a subdir for openmpi stuff?
See @comment in PLIST

Other suggestions are welcome as well because I'd really like to have
this in ports.

Tested @i386 only so far with a couple machines in my home network.

Regards
ahb
