Be sure to see Nick's answer, too -- mpi4py is a nice package.

You won't be able to add or remove plugins in the filesystem after you do the 
Open MPI installation.  But that's a pretty unusual thing to do, so I wouldn't 
worry about it.

I'm not super familiar with Python and its extension capabilities -- Nick's 
email implies that there's a different way to solve the problem, and I confess 
to not remembering what mpi4py does, offhand.
