Sorry for the confusion -- I missed the 2nd "2" in the directory
name.  Yes, that is definitely fine.

Hmm... the full diffstat of all the changes to mpid made since the
initial checkin is:

$ svn diff -r3157 mpi/mvapich-gen2/mpid/ch_gen2|diffstat -p2

Is that really all the MPI-1 development you've done since August '05?
(There are also some big changes like deleting most of the extra files
and renaming a few documents, but that's all the real changes that I see)
