Hanging tests can't be run on batch systems.

Simplest option seems to be to disable when the Open MPI version number
is too old.  I don't care whether that test is in C (OMPI_MAJOR_VERSION)
versus Python.  I would use C because petscconf.h doesn't get comments
for why something was disabled, but Barry probably prefers to do it in
configure.
