I think it is :
pratikm at annapurna:~/source/ParaView/ParaView-3.10.1/NEWBUILD/bin> ldd 
/home/pratikm/source/ParaView/ParaView-3.10.1/BUILD/bin/pvserver |grep mp

pratikm at annapurna:~/source/ParaView/ParaView-3.10.1/NEWBUILD/bin> ldd 
/home/pratikm/install/bin/pvserver |grep mp
     libmpi.so => /usr/lib64/libmpi.so (0x00002b0a9c9e3000)

These are precisely the libraries i specified; the first one is the 
pvserver with shared libs enabled, second one with shared lib disabled, 
and the last one is the "installed" pvserver(installed version of 
pvserver with shared libs enabled)
Again, the last one is the "installed" pvserver; i am not quite sure why 
the path has changed, but i am 90% sure that /usr/lib64/libmpi.so refers 
to the same sgi mpi lib.
