I am happy to confirm that Jeff's suggestion worked.
The problem was following: in previous versions VampirServer issued
ComLib = dlopen( driverName, RTLD_LAZY );
Changing this to following fixed the problem:
ComLib = dlopen( driverName, RTLD_LAZY | RTLD_GLOBAL );
The VampirServer guys compiled the modified version of VampirServer and
now, the shared library Open MPI 1.3 launches VampirServer without
issues.
It seems that the previous dlopen call did not have a global scope and
so the VampirServer plugin did not find the Open MPI 1.3 shared objects.
Thanks for the help!
