there could be multiple problem in your MPI installation
or compilation of icarus_mac.exe.

The usual reason for "invalid communicator" error is including incorrect
MPI header file in creating icarus_mac.exe.  Are there multiple MPI installations
on your mac ?  Did you use MPI wrappers, i.e. mpicc/mpif77, in building
icarus_mac.exe ?
