Perhaps someone should add the need for OMX_FATAL_ERRORS=0 to the FAQ entry that discusses MX_IMM_ACK (or perhaps it can be set programmatically via the API?).  In any case, thanks for the help in getting the servers started!

The Open-MX developers have fixed this and it will be in the next release.

In bmi_mx, I change the default MX error handler from MX_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL to MX_ERRORS_RETURN before calling mx_init() (in case mx_init() fails). In Open-MX, they only implemented the error handler change if it happened after mx_init().
