There is a priority change for us. It's definitively time to have a fully supported MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE mode in Open MPI. I'm working to figure out how and where to get the cycles for this. I expect to start working on it in January. So, the good news is that 1.3 will have thread support.

  Thanks,

I seriously doubt that we're going to advance the state of threading
on the 1.2 series (which is nowhere as close as it is on the 1.3
series).


And 1.3 I think still has a way to go to before one could really say it
supports THREAD_MULTIPLE.

Are there not users that are using THREAD_MULTIPLE successfully, or

on the trunk ?  We know that the code is not where it needs to be,

this takes away current functionality, I would prefer to display a
warning.

We've had a few users complain about trying to use THREAD_MULTIPLE
lately and having it not work.

Here's a proposal: why don't we disable it (at least in the 1.2
series)? Or, at the very least, put in a big stderr warning that is
displayed when THREAD_MULTIPLE is selected?

Comments?
