Depending on what version you use, the option has been renamed --enable-mpi-thread-multiple.

Anyhow, there is widespread concern whether the support is robust. The support is known to be limited and the performance poor.

I've been asked about mixed-mode MPI/OpenMP programming with OpenMPI, so have been digging through the past list messages on MPI_THREAD_*, etc. Interesting stuff :)

Before I go ahead and add "--enable-mpi-threads" to our standard configure flags, is there any reason it's disabled by default, please?

I'm a bit puzzled, as this default seems in conflict with whole "Law of Least Astonishment" thing. Have I missed some disaster that's going to happen?
