BTW: - if this is for development/testing - why not just use 1 node
[and run mpiexec -n 2] jobs on it?

This is what we all do. We primarily use different nodes only for
performance measurements on a cluster. [in which case - then nodes
have identical os - and the same binary is usually used].

Yeah hetrogeneous usage should generally work - but we hardly test for
that.
