Some other random thoughts... we've never agreed on what approach to use 
if we ever want to expose direct IB multicast support or event 
registration.  I created a separate module for this for PathForward, but 
there may be a way to expose that functionality through the user_mad 
interface.  (Personally, I'd like to export any desired functionality to 
the user through other interfaces, like the rdma_cm or verbs.)
