Sorry Lenny, but that isn't correct. The rankfile mapper doesn't care if the rankfile contains additional info - it only maps up to the number of processes, and ignores anything beyond that number. So there is no need to remove the additional info.
Likewise, if you have more procs than the rankfile specifies, we map the additional procs either byslot (default) or bynode (if you specify that option). So the rankfile doesn't need to contain an entry for every proc. Just don't want to confuse folks.
