With our MTT testing we have noticed a problem that has cropped up in the trunk. There are some tests that are supposed to return a non-zero status because they are getting errors, but are instead returning 0. This problem does not exist in r23022 but does exist in r23023.

One can use the ibm/final test to reproduce the problem. An example of a passing case followed by a failing case is shown below.

Ralph, you want me to open a ticket on this? Or do you just want to take a look. I am asking you since you did the r23023 commit.

TRUNK VERSION r23022:
[rolfv@burl-ct-x2200-6 environment]$ mpirun -np 1 -mca btl sm,self final
**************************************************************************
This test should generate a message about MPI is either not initialized or

mpirun noticed that the job aborted, but has no info as to the process
that caused that situation.
