Jeff, Rob,

thank you! MPI_Comm_split_type() is what I was looking for.

> https://wiki.alcf.anl.gov/parts/index.php/Implementing_a_Symmetric_Heap has an implementation of MPE_Comm_split_node that does a very simple O(Nproc) implementation of MPI_Comm_split_type(type=SHARED) using MPI_Get_processor_name.  It also shows the non-portable implementation for Cray and Blue Gene that one can use until MPI-3 is deployed on those systems.
