The buildbots were green yesterday but some of them are failing
again. The problem seems to be a an error appearing "at random" for
some demos using PETSc in combination with Hypre. Johannes and I
discussed it and the problem is likely a partly broken OpenMPI package
in Ubuntu Precise (12.04).

What is the best way to handle this? Tuning the demos to avoid the
problems with the Ubuntu Precise OpenMPI package does not seem to be
the best solution.

My suggestion would be to disable parallel testing on the Ubuntu
Precise buildbot. Are there other solutions?

We could also think about building OpenMPI manually on that platform
but it's also a point to make sure serial DOLFIN runs fine on Precise
with the standard Debian packages.
