[mpich-discuss] Poor performance of Waitany / Waitsome

John's code doesn't server as a fair comparison of Waitsome and
Waitany.  In fact, now that I look at it, it appears that his calls to
Waitany are incorrect and furthermore will not lead to the same effect
of Waitsome or Waitall w.r.t. populating the two output arrays.
