If you are looking for the path of least resistance, then going back to MPICH is probably your best bet (there is certainly merit in "it ain't broke, so don't fix it").
However, there may be a few other factors to consider: - Just because an app runs and completes with one MPI implementation does not mean that the application is correct; running with a different implementation can be a great way to find bugs that you were unaware of - Open MPI is under continual development. The latest officially released stable version of Open MPI is v1.0.2. There are also post-1.0.2 snapshots (what will eventually become 1.0.3).
