Hmmm ... quite specific. You mentionned MVAPICH ... then I assume MPI
level 1. So you may try to add the configure option --with-mpi-level=1
... but it definitely stinks :-) Tell us if it does some good.
And did you try one of the abinit parallel tests (if no, copy the
t_kpt+spin.in, t_kpt+spin.files and 26fe.pspnc files to a directory,
modify the .files and test abinip with them)? Do you experience the
crash only with your own input file?


Kind regards,

Alain

BTW ... download the 5.8.4p release, it solves a nasty bug (unrelated to
mpi)
