Yes, i am setting the config correcty.  Our IB machines seem to run
just fine so far using srun and openmpi v1.5.

As another data point, we enabled mpi-threads in Openmpi and that also
seems to trigger the Srun/TCP behavior, but on the IB fabric.  Running
the program within an salloc rather the straight srun and the problem
seems to go away
