Do these build for anyone else besides you ?

Yes but there is nothing different from your tree in OpenIB.

Various:

Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike)
gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)

Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg)
gcc (GCC) 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)

It has not changed but the proof is in the pudding... Have you built and
run this with OpenIB ?

I don't see any OpenIB defines in the build (nor are the builds
following the OpenIB userspace conventions). 

I also see ibgd and other indications in the build.

Yes, there are some in ibdm. You should go through your tools and check
all them out yourself.

Do the tools not have the correct hierarchy already ?

How is the branch it is on different from any other branch ? You can
move it to another branch if that helps somehow.
