[mpich-discuss] MPI comm attributes not working?

I am trying to understand how communicator attributes work, so I found
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25198353/callbacks-provided-in-mpi-comm-create-keyval-are-not-called,
which contains a nice example (the code in
http://stackoverflow.com/a/25205611/2189128).

However, the posted output of this code is:

$ mpirun -np 1 ./comm-attr
In ibcast_copy: keyval = 10
In ibcast_delete: keyval = 10
In ibcast_delete: keyval = 10

Whereas I observe:

$ mpirun -np 1 ./a.out
In ibcast_copy: keyval = -1539309568
In ibcast_delete: keyval = -1539309568

Can anyone help me understand what the correct output of this program is?
If it is not what I am seeing, is this a bug in MPICH or am I doing
something wrong?

I am using MPICH git from November 2015, so I will git pull && ./autogen.sh
&& $CONFIGUREMAKEINSTALL and try again just to be sure.

Thanks,

Jeff
