Thanks for the patch. It indeed looks cleaner than my changes but I
tested them with several MPI implementations installed and it always
gave proper results. I'll test and apply your patch nevertheless, as it
should not have side effects. Thanks for working on that!

I'm drowning in work at the moment, so I will not be able to upload a
fixed version before Friday or Saturday.

Best regards
Manuel
