if there is a problem, it has to be within mpich2 or how you
compiled/installed it, not in cp2k.
if cp2k would use non-portable, non-standard MPI constructs,
those would have shown up long ago.

perhaps your mpich2 compilation picked up the mpich1 mpif.h file
instead of the one for mpich2 and there could be some
incompatibilities
in the ABI. or your compiler miscompiled mpich2. the latter would be
likely, if you compiled with a high optimization level (not
recommended
for MPI).

but why bother with mpich at all, when openmpi works so
much better? ;)
