BTW: I did see one issue in your program. In the program that isn't working, you declare the various input arrays for MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple, but only the manager rank=0 ever initializes them. Thus, the other manager ranks were passing random garbage down to the function.
Even though only the root process looks at those params, it still shouldn't be random garbage just from a programming standpoint. At the least, set them to NULL or something.
