FWIW: now that I have access to the Intel compiler suite, including for Windows, I've been toying with creating a more stable support solution for OMPI on Windows. It's a low-priority task for me because it isn't clear that we have very many Windows users in HPC land, and the cygwin port already exists anyway. However, I probably will do it for sometime in the 1.9 series.
