inter-communicator scatter, since the root (root==MPI_ROOT) might very well
have recvcount=0. The same fix has been applied to gather.c just the other way
round.
Fixes the bug reported on the mainling list by Martin Audet. If there is a
1.2.7 this fix might be worthwhile porting it over.
Please note, that while the test works now for basic and for inter, we get a
0byte malloc warning from the inter module, which we still have to fix in a
separate patch.
