Right. So either (1) it doesn't use GM, since it's been around for a while
and can't possibly be using the not-yet-released GM with "get", or (2) it
uses 2-sided messaging to implement 1-sided messaging, which can be done but
is usually slow. I couldn't tell from the one paper I read about it in.

I have a subset prototype SHMEM library based on GM. Since only "put" is in
the production version of GM, the subset is pretty obvious: no get, no
atomic ops. There are some subtle aspects to implementing things correctly.
