Hi Ole,

Yes, that appears to work - no more segmentation faults:

mpirun -np 2 python demo.py
MPI initialised OK with 2 processors
I am proc 0 of 2 on node fourier
I am proc 1 of 2 on node hopper
Processor 0 sending message "MSGP0" to processor 1
Processor 1 received message "MSGP0" from processor 0
Size of msg was 5 bytes
Processor 1 sending msg "MSGP0->P1" to 0
Processor 0 received message "MSGP0->P1" from processor 1
Size of msg was 9 bytes

Thanks!

Dave
