Now he tells us. :)  The mpich code I looked at yesterday to try to
figure out from whence that error message had come includes an #ifdef
section for GM2 that I ignored.  (mpich-1.2.5..10/mpid/ch_gm/gmpi_priv.c
line 392 where the comment reads "What a mess".)

I'm not to interested in trying to run gm 2.0.5 here just yet.  If you
manage to figure out what's wrong, we can certainly fix mpiexec to work
around whatever changed in going to gm 2.0.5.
