Thanks Ralph.
Was there a reason this functionality wasn't in from the start then?
LA-MPI works under bproc using shared libraries.
I know Bproc folks like to kill the notion of shared libs but they
are a fact of life we can't live without.
Just my $0.02.

Unfortunately, that's all that is available at the moment. Future
releases (post 1.1) may get around this problem.
The issue is that the bproc launcher actually does a binary memory
image of the process, then replicates that across all the nodes.
This is how we were told to implement it originally by the BProc
folks. However, that means that shared libraries have problems, for
obvious reasons.
We have to reimplement the bproc launcher using a different
approach - will take a little time.

Also, remember that you must configure for static operation for
bproc - use the configuration options "--enable-static --disable-
shared". Our current bproc launcher *really* dislikes shared
libraries.... ;-)
