Could you check that your programm closes all MPI-IO files before calling MPI_Finalize ?

In Openmpi-1.5.3 with enabled threading support, the MPI-IO routines work
without any problems. However, the dead lock now occurs when calling
mpi_finalize with the backtrace given below. This deadlock is independent
of the number of mpi tasks.
However, the deadlock during mpi_finalize does not occur when no MPI-IO
routines where called before. Unfortunately, the program terminates with a
segfault in this case, after returning from mpi_finalize (at the end of the program)
