So, let me summarize the options we have at this point:

1. Decide that apparently, MPI tests were never run in past as part of regression
testing framework, and therefore can wait till 1.41.

2. Have Noel try running with trunk version of XSL scripts, either using "svn switch",
or by merging to release branch. Then, fix MPI failures.

Can the release management team decide?

Incidentally, I wonder if (2) is necessary for fixing MPI failures. Jeremiah,
do you get clean MPI test run locally? If not, maybe you can start to fix
failures pro-actively?

Thanks,
