[OMPI users] Building on a host with a shoddy OpenFabrics installation

[Gary Jackson]

I'm trying to build OpenMPI on a cluster that has InfiniBand adapters 
and at least enough of OpenFabrics to have working IPoIB. But some 
things are missing, like infiniband/verbs.h. Is it possible to build 
OpenMPI with a working openib btl on a host like this? For instance, can 
I do a partial installation of the necessary libraries and headers of 
OFED in to my home directory so I can get this working? I do not have 
root authority on these hosts, so doing a correct installation of OFED 
is sadly not a possibility.
