convertor (when prepared) increase the reference count on the used datatype. This reference count
will be released only when the OBJ_DESTRUCT is called on a convertor. However, having to call
OBJ_CONSTRUCT and OBJ_DESTRUCT on each request every time we want to use it (even when it come
from the cache) is an expensive operation. This can be avoided is the OBJ_DESTRUCT will leave the
convertor in exactly the same state as OBJ_CONSTRUCT. With this approach we just have to call
OBJ_CONSTRUCT for each convertor once when we initially create the request.

any NICs to use
* Make mvapi, gm, and mx components all publish information, even if there
are no NICs available so that modex_recv doesn't hang. If there are no
NICs available, don't set the reachable bit, but don't do anything
to fail. This unfortunately doesn't cover the hangs that will result if
different procs load different sets of components, but it's a start

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, instead of the deprecated version.
* Work around dumbness in modern AC_INIT that requires the version
number to be set at autoconf time (instead of at configure time, as
it was before). Set the version number, minus the subversion r number,
at autoconf time. Override the internal variables to include the r
number (if needed) at configure time. Basically, the right thing
should always happen. The only place it might not is the version
reported as part of configure --help will not have an r number.
* Since AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE taks a list of options, no need to specify
them in all the Makefile.am files.
* Addes support for subdir-objects, meaning that object files are put
in the directory containing source files, even if the Makefile.am is
in another directory. This should start making it feasible to
reduce the number of Makefile.am files we have in the tree, which
will greatly reduce the time to run autogen and configure.

1. Added OMPI_PROC_ARCH as a defined registry key and added the code so that the architecture info gets properly transmitted across all processes using the startup message.
2. Added an OMPI_MODEX_KEY definition and removed the hard-coded "modex" key from pml_modex_exchange

add a -I to find the included ltdl.h (vs. a system-installed ltdl.h)
- Clean up kruft in a bunch of Makefile.am's to remove now-unnecessary
AM_CPPFLAGS settings to get static-components.h for each framework
- Move the component_repository API functions out of opal/mca/base/base.h
and into opal/mca/base/mca_base_component_repository.h in order to
decrease unnecessary dependencies (e.g., before this, almost
everything in the tree depended on ltdl.h, which is unnecessary --
only a small number of files really need ltdl.h)

Here's the huge registry check-in you've all been waiting for with baited breath. The revised version sends a single message to all processes at the various stage gates, thus making the startup much more scalable. I could provide you with all the tawdry details, but won't for now - you are welcome to ask, though, and I'll merrily bore your ears to tears.
In addition, the commit contains the following:
1. set the ignore properties on ompi/debuggers and orte/mca/pls/poe
2. Added simplified subscribe and put functions to the registry's API. I have also converted all of the ompi functions that registered subscriptions to the new API, and caught their associated put's as well.
In a follow-on commit, I'll be adding support for George's hetero arch registry subscription (wanted to get this one in first).

Change all the places where they are used to fit the new name.
Remove the code to check the remote arch from the PML. We will have a GPR mechanism
in ompi_mpi_initialize to do that.

1. Modify the registry to eliminate redundant data copying for startup messages.
2. Revise the subscription/trigger system to avoid redundant storage of triggers and subscriptions. This dramatically reduces the search time when a registry action occurs - to illustrate the point, there are now only a handful of triggers on the system for each job. Before, there were a handful of triggers for each PROCESS in the job, all of which had to be checked every time something happened on the registry. This is much, much faster now.
3. Update all subscriptions to the new format. There are now "named" subscriptions - this allows you to "name" a subscription that all the processes will be using. The first one to hit the registry actually defines the subscription. From then on, any subsequent "subscribes" to the same name just cause that process to "attach" to the existing subscription. This keeps the number of subscriptions being tracked by the registry to a minimum, while ensuring that each process still gets notified.
4. Do the same for triggers.
Also fixed a duplicate subscription problem that was causing people to receive data equal to the number of processes times the data they should have received from a trigger/subscription. Sorry about that... :-( ...but it's all better now!
Uncovered a situation where the modex data seems to be getting entered on the registry a second time - the latter time coming after the compound command has been "fired", thereby causing all the subscriptions to fire. Asked Tim and Jeff to look into this.
Second phase of the changes will involve modifying the xcast system so that the same message gets sent to all processes. This will further reduce the message traffic, and - once we have a true "broadcast" version of xcast - really speed things up and improve scalability.

is a lot more difficult than a PTL, and it can adapt it's behavior to the level of threading required
by the user. In this case the behavior is the priorit of the PML. Therefore this information is never
availale before the init function (of the PML) is called. So I try to keep nearly the same structure
as it was before, with one change. When a PML get initialized it does not necessarily means it has been
selected, so it does not means it has to create all it's internal structures (and select the PTL and
all this stuff). They can all be done later, when a PML knows that it definitively get selected
(when the enable function is called with the argument set to true). Thus, in the case of a PML close
one have to check if the PML has been selected or not before trying to clean up the internals.
I had to change the MPI_Init function to allow the PML to be enabled before we start adding procs inside.
