My testing of real hardware is almost complete and I've reported the only
two issues[*] I encountered:
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2015/04/17183.php
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2015/04/17184.php
There were roughly 5 failing configurations out of about 70.
Testing on a Raspberry Pi and QEMU-emulated MIPS32, MIPS64, ARM and AARCH64
systems will complete overnight.

[*] Excludes known issues for which bug reports have been filed against
previous releases.
