Sounds good :-)  I'm going to try to build it anyway, and let you know if 
stucked.

Yes.  This is because one of our roles is enabling Java applications to run on 
top of the K computer (Fujitsu), which prevents user processes from TCP/IP 
communications directly.  It only allows communications via customized openmpi 
(scheduler) between inter node communications.  BTW, I don't fully understand 
what a 1:1 set of bindings mean.  I believe that the interfaces defined in 
mpiJava was carefully designed to match the MPI spec, and then should be a 1:1 
set of bindings.  Otherwise, I'm willing to contribute something to make it 
better ;-)

Thanks,
