 The code I had to fix wasn't my own, either :-) Your college is 15 years
 behind the times. Newer processors and memory architectures have come out
 that the fftw team has written code for ... but only in the 3.x version. I
 can't help but emphasize **fifteen years**. For what it's worth, I know
 for a fact the fftw 2.x series has a broken mpi implementation.

 Of course, you could argue that your patch is small enough and low impact
 so as to be a minimal intrusion. After I give my talk at Berkeley
 tomorrow, I'll probably consider adding it since it doesn't break things
 anymore than they are already broken.
