Nice backpedaling, but
1) The list is archived at lists.openfabrics.org, and it is hard to miss
the link.
2) The archive has a copy of your message to me, within 90 minutes of
you sending it.
3) This is not a high-volume list, and "my message might be missed"
really doesn't hold water.

"No one answered my email" in 12 hours is generally considered a whine.

No, only a very small percentage of the US population is on this list.
I'd be mildly surprised if less than half of the list is based in the
same timezones as the US, though.

I pointed out that good part of the list membership was asleep, and the
reset were working on their day jobs. You seem to have cut that part.

In any event, if the code works natively and not inside the JVM, I would
suggest investigating what is different in the broken environment. You
seem to have forgotten the error log in the tarball, nor did you state
which side crashes -- client, server, or both. You also don't specify
which OFED version you are running. This makes it hard for the people
that actually want to help you.
