as already mentioned some weeks ago, we plan to provide IPv6-support
for OpenMPI.

Before touching the code, we'd like to have a test environment to ensure
not to break anything.

There is a test/-directory, but the tests inside seem to be very basic, no network testing or anything running longer than a few milliseconds ;)

Is there a better/larger testsuite available? Or how do you test
your code modifications?

We have an internal set of tests we run against Open MPI, but many can not be released, so we've made the entire repository of tests available only to members of the Open MPI development team. The two popular sets of tests are the IBM test suite (which is what the LAM test suite is based off of) and the Intel test suite. Generally, those are a good start to making sure your code works. Of course, you might want to start with something dead simple, like NetPIPE, and work your way up ;).
