Well, you could probably set things up so certain processes get one set 
of libs and certain processes get the other set by tweaking LIBPATH or 
whatever.  But that's probably not a good idea since they share the same 
kernel subsystem.  The iwarp branch kernel hasn't been tested with 
non-iwarp-branch libs for instance...

The iwarp branch should work with the IB devices however. So I'm not 
sure why you would want both sets of libs?
