    I'm sorry -- I neglected to mention in my previous e-mail that we had 
    some problems with the logic for checkpoint/restart initialization in 
    LAM/MPI v7.1.1.  Can you try the soon-to-be-released 7.1.2 beta?
    
    	http://www.lam-mpi.org/beta/
    
    That should solve your problems.
