Simple, because the test that eventually segfaults only runs if ompi is configured with threading. Otherwise it is a no-op.

I think another important question is: why is this related to threads? (i.e., why does it work in non-threaded builds)

Carto select failing if it doesn't find any modules was called out in an earlier message (might have been a commit log) when we set an mca-no- build flag on that framework. This should probably be fixed - there are times when
someone may not wish to build any carto modules.

Is there some reason why carto absolutely must find a module? Can we crate a
default "none available" module in the base?

Hi,

We have been having a problem lately with our MTT runs where make check
would fail when mpi threads were enabled.

Turns out the problem is that opal_init now calls
opal_base_carto_select, which cannot find any carto modules since we
have not done an install yet. So it returns a failure. This causes
opal_init to abort before initializing the event engine. So when we try to do the threading tests, the event engine is uninitialized and fails.

So this is why it fails, but I do not know how best to fix it. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.
