I was able to produce it in my test.

orted affinity set by cpuset:
[root@nyx5874 ~]# hwloc-bind --get --pid 103645
0x0000c002

This mask (1, 14,15) which is across sockets, matches the cpu set setup by the 
batch system. 
[root@nyx5874 ~]# cat /dev/cpuset/torque/12719806.nyx.engin.umich.edu/cpus 
1,14-15

The ranks though were then all set to the same core:

[root@nyx5874 ~]# hwloc-bind --get --pid 103871
0x00008000
[root@nyx5874 ~]# hwloc-bind --get --pid 103872
0x00008000
[root@nyx5874 ~]# hwloc-bind --get --pid 103873
0x00008000

Which is core 15:

report-bindings gave me:
You can see how a few nodes were bound to all the same core, the last one in 
each case.  I only gave you the results for the hose nyx5874.
