My understanding is that in Fortran explicitly types variables will retain their expected size. Thus, instead of declaring INTEGER :: status[MPI_STATUS_SIZE] one should go for INTEGER*4 :: status[MPI_STATUS_SIZE] This should make it work right now. However, it is a non-standard solution, and we should fix the status handling internally in Open MPI. Looking at the code I think that correctly detecting the type of our ompi_fortran_integer_t during configure (which should be a breeze if the correct flags are passed) should solve all issues here as we are protecting the status conversion between C and Fortran. Jim, can you go in the include directory on your Open MPI installation and grep for the definition of ompi_fortran_integer_t please. George.
