Here's what I've put for the 1.6 NEWS bullets -- do they look ok? - Fix some process affinity issues. When binding a process, Open MPI will now bind to all available hyperthreads in a core (or socket, depending on the binding options specified). - Add support for ARM5 and ARM6 (in addition to the existing ARM7 support). Thanks to Evan Clinton for the patch. - Minor Mellanox MXM fixes. - Minor fixes to the mpirun(1) and MPI_Comm_create(3) man pages. - Prevent segv if COMM_SPAWN_MULTIPLE fails. Thanks to Fujitsu for the patch. - Disable interposed memory management in fakeroot environments. This fixes a problem in some build environments. - Minor hwloc updates. - Array versions of MPI_TEST and MPI_WAIT with a count==0 will now return immediately with MPI_SUCCESS. Thanks to Jeremiah Willcock for the suggestion. - Update VampirTrace to v5.12.2. - Properly handle forwarding stdin to all processes when "mpirun --stdin all" is used. - Workaround XLC assembly bug. - OS X Tiger (10.3) has not been supported for a while, so forcibly abort configure if we detect it. - Fix segv in the openib BTL when running on SPARC 64 systems. - Fix some include file ordering issues on some BSD-based platforms. Thanks to Paul Hargove for this (and many, many other) fixes. - Properly handle .FALSE. return parameter value to attribute copy callback functions. - Fix a bunch of minor C++ API issues; thanks to Fujitsu for the patch. - Fixed the default hostfile MCA parameter behavior. - Per the MPI spec, ensure not to touch the port_name parameter to MPI_CLOSE_PORT (it's an IN parameter).
