Ah, gotcha.

That doesn't seem too attractive from an OMPI perspective, though.  We'd want 
to know where the PCI devices are actually rooted.

Another reason OMPI wants the whole system: be able to tell the memory 
characteristics of other processes on the same server as me (e.g., be able to 
tell that it's on a different numa node, socket, ...etc.).
