It is hard to know for certain. Have you checked the mailing list, e.g. search on openmpi? There are several possibilities, see for instance http://zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/pipermail/wien/2010-July/013455.html one being incompatible versions of openmpi/mpif90 and/or fftw (which fftw are you using?). Unfortunately openmpi can be a bit tricky and can go into an infinite loop. Which version of Wien2k are you using? Version 10.1 has some error handlers to try and prevent this, but if you are running an earlier version...
