So you have a version for Torque version A and Torque version B, i.e. some 
permutations of Open MPI and Torque versions.

In one and the same cluster you are running two different versions of Torque?

When they are installed in the location where "--prefix=..." pointed to during 
`./configure` it will work. If you moved them afterwards to different 
locations, it might be necessary to point OPAL_PREFIX to the destination you 
moved it to before you call `mpiexec`.

But you will have to have different compiled versions of your applications too. 
Between 1.6 and 1.7 the ABI may have changed, only the combination odd + next 
even major release of Open MPI is guaranteed to have the same ABI.
