FWIW, I think we imported your patch a while ago. Here it is on the trunk:
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/browser/trunk/opal/mca/memory/linux/malloc.c#L3933 And here it is on v1.6: https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/browser/branches/v1.6/opal/mca/memory/linux/malloc.c#L3933 On May 24, 2012, at 2:06 PM, Larry Baker wrote: > Terry, > > What you are seeing is a bug in the vectorizer in the Intel 2011.6.233 > release.
