This looks fine. There is one point we may want to clarify/highlight in some manner. When we reach 1.3.4, the SLURM support changes so things won't work for LANL's interactive login method (a rather unique one) unless they upgrade to slurm xxx (forget number - can look it up when I get back). I'm

Hi, I've been investigating some OpenMPI deadlocks triggered by a test suite written to test the thread safety of MPI libraries. I'm using OpenMPI 1.3.3. One of the deadlocks I'm seeing looks like this (the sleep for frame 1 is something I inserted when a deadlock is detected so I can attach a d
