yes. Thank you very much for making this clear. I thought cactus  
might have an own mechanism to launch distributed programmes.
So the same limitations which apply to raw mpi programmes also apply  
to cactus applications (e.g. seldom possible to run with different  
mpi implementations on different machines)?
