Does this need to be CMR'ed to 1.4 and/or 1.5?

Okay, I fixed this in r24536.

Sorry for the problem, Damien - thanks for catching it! Went unnoticed because 
the folks at the Labs always use IB.

I believe I see the problem - and why it wouldn't show up for IB. It looks like 
the hier module passes an incorrect flag to the modex unpack function, which 
causes that function to place the modex values as attributes assigned to the 
node instead of a process, rather than placing the values into the modex 
database. So when you look up a value, you get a single value for the entire 
node.

Works for IB because the interface info is at the node level. Doesn't work for TCP 
because the "interface" info is at the proc level.

Since it was only tested on IB before, this didn't show up. Should be easy to 
fix.

I just checked and IB does work correctly. But then I remembered that IB is 
different, the connection are peer based, so they don't happens during the 
modex exchange. The data is exchanged over RML messages, but outside the modex.
Not quite.  The openib BTL does use the modex to send around connection 
information.  The actual connections are made lazily -- just like the TCP BTL 
-- but the OOB CPC (i.e., the default connection mode in the openib BTL) uses 
RML to do the 2/3 way handshake.  That's all.

But the point here is: the openib BTL does rely on the modex.
