[MPICH] bug in evaluating MPIEXEC_MACHINES_PATH

[Martin Kleinschmidt]

when evaluating MPIEXEC_MACHINES_PATH, remshell throws away the last
character of MPIEXEC_MACHINES_PATH, regardless if it is a slash or not:

$ setenv MPIEXEC_MACHINES_PATH `pwd`
$ echo $MPIEXEC_MACHINES_PATH
/data2/mk/518977.fats.theochem.uni-duesseldorf.de
$ mpiexec -n 4 program
Could not open machines file
/data2/mk/518977.fats.theochem.uni-duesseldorf.d/machines
Could not find machines for default architecture
Unable to assign hosts to processes

note the missing "e" at the end of the directory name!
adding a slash for removal helps:

$ setenv MPIEXEC_MACHINES_PATH /data2/mk/518977.fats.theochem.uni-duesseldorf.de/
$ echo $MPIEXEC_MACHINES_PATH
/data2/mk/518977.fats.theochem.uni-duesseldorf.de/
mpiexec -n 4 ~/prog/mrci/mrci.my_version/mrci

(runs)


The last character should only be thrown away if it is irrelevant.
