Christoph,

I do not know how to fix this, but here are some suggestions/thoughts

- do you need the -f flag ? if not, just remote it
- what if you mpirun strace -o /dev/null ... ?
- if the former works, then you might want to redirect the strace
output to a local file (mpirun wrapper.sh, in which wrapper.sh sets
the output file based on $PMIX_RANK or $$, and then exec strace ...

Cheers,

Gilles
