I believe that the purpose of this routine is to let each process  
discover the ranks (relative to MPI_COMM_WORLD) that are on the same  
node as the calling process.  Thus, on the node with comm world ranks  
0-7, Get_clique_ranks should return 0-7.  On the node with comm world  
ranks 8-11, Get_clique_ranks should return 8-11.
