Hello,

first, please consider that the VT versions integrated in Open MPI v1.5.x and 
v1.4.x are different - respectively the names of the environment variables for 
setting a pre-created symbol list:

        Open MPI v1.4.x: VT_NMFILE
        Open MPI v1.5.x: VT_GNU_NMFILE


Furthermore, make sure that the environment variable is exported to *all* MPI 
tasks. Therefor, add the option '-x <env>' to your mpirun command:

        mpirun -x VT_GNU_NMFILE ...


Regards,
Matthias
