Openmpi Rocks 5.4 vs Rocks 5.4.3

"""Note:"""

For some reasons, OpenMPI from Rocks 5.4.3 distro looks for infiniband network by default. So without
"--mca btl ^udapl,openib --mca btl_tcp_if_include eth0", it will looks for inifiniband network and
the just will hang as it waiting for the infiniband netrwork to be come available.

Could be a bug from this distribution !!!
