We validated Intel 6.0 and 6.0.1 with MPICH-GM.  We saw problems
with Intel 6.0 related to Fortran I/O, which were fixed in
Intel 6.0.1.
 
We're in the process of testing with Intel 7.0, and we have
seen problems, which are under investigation.
 
Right now, we are NOT recommending that customers use Intel 7.0
with MPICH-GM.  We recommend Intel 6.0.1.

This message is a bug in gm-1.6.3, and is annoying but
harmless.  You can download the patch for gm-1.6.3 from
