Hi Douglas
Just for the record, I am using:
Open MPI 1.4.2 (released 2 days ago), gcc 4.4.3 (g++, gfortran).
All on Fedora Core 12, kernel 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP.
The machine is a white box with two-way
quad-core Intel Xeon (Nehalem) E5540 @ 2.53GHz, 48GB RAM.
Hyperthreading is currently turned on.
But please, don't spend more time on this.
You already gave a lot of help.
I guess this would be fixed if I could reinstall the OS
using a more stable Linux distribution, not Fedora.
You and Jeff reported that your
Nehalems get along with Open MPI.
I would guess other people have functional Open MPI + Nehalem systems.
All I can think of is that some mess with the OS/gcc is causing
the trouble here.
(Yes, to avoid trouble I always compile MPI
and applications with the same compiler set.
And keep a bunch of Open MPI builds to match our needs.)
Cheers,
Gus Correa

Would you know which gcc you used to build your Open MPI?
Or did you use Intel icc instead?
Intel ifort and icc. I build OpenMPI with the same compiler, and same
options, that I build my application with.
I have been tempted to try and duplicate your problem. Would that be a
helpful experiment? gcc, OpenMPI 1.4.1, IIRC ?

Douglas.
