I just built this with MPICH and it runs fine:

master:/PETSc3/petsc/petsc-pylith$
/PETSc3/petsc/petsc-pylith/arch-pylith-cxx-debug/bin/mpiexec -host
localhost -n 2
/PETSc3/petsc/petsc-pylith/arch-pylith-cxx-debug/lib/in-place-obj/in-place
Done with the scatter !
0 0 0 0 (this line should be filled with 0)
1 1 1 1 (this line should be filled with 1)
Done with the gather !

Will valgrind.

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
