Note this alps ess component has nothing to do
with the old CNOS alps component used on
Cray Seastar/Portals3 (Cray XT) systems.
To work properly, changes need to be made to the
open method of the ess/pmi component to keep it
from selecting, and thus initializing, the opal/pmix/cray
component.
The alps ess component is obsolete. It relies on header
files only present in very old CLE (Cray Linux) 3.X for
the Cray XT series. As support for these systems is being
dropped starting with release 1.9, this code is being removed.

Any components not in the trunk, but in one of the effected frameworks *must* be
updated. Contact the list, look at the RFC, or look at the diff for how to do this.
Sorry for the early commit of this, but I wanted to get it in today (per RFC) and
didn't know if I would have a chance later today.
This commit was SVN r18381.
