    Pradeep and Jeff,
       There is no support in current BLCR versions for either POSIX or 
    Linux-native async I/O support.  While this has nothing to do with 
    whatever linker problems Jeff mentioned, it could be the cause of the 
    problems you've been seeing.
    
    Jeff,
       How/when is async I/O used in LAM?  Is there a simple way to disable 
    it via ssi params?
    
    -Paul
