looking on a solution for
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2012/10/20495.php
I noticed that the issue disappears on 1.6.2 with the patch:

/* If absolute path is given, return it without searching. */
if( opal_path_is_absolute(fname) ) {
- return opal_path_access(fname, "", mode);
+ return opal_path_access(fname, NULL , mode);
}
/* Initialize. */
----------------------------------------------------------------
For what I can see on the function body, the test on path
is expecting path to be a null pointer and not a
pointer to an empty strings
----------------------------------------------------------------
char *opal_path_access(char *fname, char *path, int mode)
{
char *fullpath = NULL;
struct stat buf;
/* Allocate space for the full pathname. */
if (NULL == path) {
fullpath = opal_os_path(false, fname, NULL);
} else {
fullpath = opal_os_path(false, path, fname, NULL);
}
if (NULL == fullpath)
return NULL;
