- using openmpi 1.4.1 which seems to run the examples ok.
- ldconfig output is:
	vlad@bd01 Parallel-MPI-Simple-0.03]$ ldconfig -p | grep mpi

- libmpi.so defines the symbol openmpi_mpi_char:
[[vlad@bd01 Parallel-MPI-Simple-0.03]$ objdump -tT /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.0 | grep mpi_char
0000000000296920 g     O .data	0000000000000200              ompi_mpi_char
0000000000296b20 g     O .data	0000000000000200              ompi_mpi_character

- However the file Simple.so does not appear to look for this lib:
	[vlad@bd01 Parallel-MPI-Simple-0.03]$ ldd  blib/arch/auto/Parallel/MPI/Simple/Simple.so
	linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fffaa1fe000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007fcaa1ae4000)
	/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000003da7a00000)

System is FC10 x86_64
