[Beowulf] Re: static pvm library won't link anymore

[David Mathog]

Well it builds cleanly now, but it doesn't run.  Traced the failure
down to the exec in /usr/common/pvm3/lib/LINUX/pvmd.  For the old
version it does this:

% /usr/common/pvm3_3.4.4/lib/LINUX/pvmd3 -s -d0x0 -nmonkey01.cluster 1
c0a801dc:84c2 4080 30 c0a80101:0000
ddpro<2316> arch<LINUX> ip<c0a80101:800d> mtu<4080> dsig<4229185>

(as it should be)

for the new one it does this:

% /usr/common/pvm3_3.4.5/lib/LINUX/pvmd3 -s -d0x0 -nmonkey01.cluster 1
c0a801dc:84c2 4080 30 c0a80101:0000
Floating point exception (core dumped)

Sigh,
