[Paraview] building paraview3 beta with openmpi?

hi,

i successfully compiled paraview3 beta with openmpi 1.0.2 by setting

SET(CMAKE_C_COMPILER mpicc)
SET(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER mpicxx)

in my CMakeLists.txt file, and then running cmake like this:

cmake -DVTK_USE_MPI:BOOL=ON \
-DVTK__MPIRUN_EXE:FILEPATH=/path_to_openmpi/openmpi1.0.2/bin/ \
/path_to_paraview3_src/ParaView3/

and when i try to run

mpiexec -n 4 ./paraview

from within my paraview3 bin directory, i get 4 paraview windows rather
than a single window running in parallel mode.  i have made sure the path
to the openmpi bin is on the top of my path, and the path to openmpi lib is
on the top of my ld_library_path environment variable, but still no luck.  i
have no trouble running paraview2.6 with this same command, built with
the same modifications to CMakeLists.txt and the cmake command line.

any help much appreciated,
bryan
