Ahh, and then I woke up....
This might not be an issue (or a big one), but I have some code I am
working on that replaces memcpy with an opal memcpy routine. Does your
change below remove the ability of the BTLs to call opal routines?

Now that 1.3 will be released, we would like to go ahead with the plan
to move the btl’s out of the MPI layer. Greg Koenig who is doing most
of the work has started a wiki page with details on the plans. Right
now details are sketchy, as Greg is digging through the code, and has
only hand written notes on data structures that need to be moved,
include files that are not needed, etc. The page is at:
_https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/BTLExtraction_
The first three steps basically only involve code motion, moving items
such as ompi_list, and renaming them, moving where the code is
actually located in the repository, and the like. For these we do not
plan to put out a formal RFC, but comments are very welcome, and any
hands that are willing to help with this are even more welcome.
The last phase where the btl’s are made dependent on OPAL, and
supporting libraries such as mpools I expect will be disruptive, and
will definitely require an RFC, and will also be a longer process.
Please send comments,
Rich
