[mvapich-discuss] ptmalloc warning MVAPICH2-2.2a

Below [1] are the my build steps.  The last warning I saw was with PETSc
3.4.5 test programs, that are from PETSc source.  I have had to
set MV2_ENABLE_AFFINITY=0 to avoid affinity errors, unsure if that has any
impact.

I ran osu_bw and received the same warning [2].

The output from mpiname -a:
