Hi again, Were you aware of such problems with openmpi? Have you in mind a robust solution rather than this dirty patch? Thanks for your help, Nicolas
It seems strange that it is required (firedrake does import mpi4py like that, but perhaps in the wrong order?). Generally the impression seems to be that mpich has fewer issues than openmpi. But this is not a terrible hack (although I agree it is somewhat ugly). Thanks, Lawrence
