Grumpy MPI. Now there's a name for a new open source project, if I have ever 
seen one.

Let's start it now - a new MPI implementation which is intended for clouds and 
geographically
separated machines with high latencies between them. The MPI implementation 
will cope with
Network interruptions of a long duration, but will of course produce copious 
grumpy error messages.
