Hi,

  Its giving segmentation fault for the given examples.

The used example is example01:

output of Serial Run:

# ./run_example | tee run_serial_out

/opt/espresso-4.0.2/examples/example01 : starting

This example shows how to use pw.x to calculate the total energy and
the band structure of four simple systems: Si, Al, Cu, Ni.

  executables directory: /opt/espresso-4.0.2/bin
  pseudo directory:      /opt/espresso-4.0.2/pseudo
  temporary directory:   /root/qstemp
  checking that needed directories and files exist... done

  running pw.x as:  /opt/espresso-4.0.2/bin/pw.x
  running bands.x as:  /opt/espresso-4.0.2/bin/bands.x

  cleaning /root/qstemp... done
  running the scf calculation for Si... done
  running the band-structure calculation for Si... done
  running the symmetry analysis for Si bands...

**** Segmentation fault!  Fault address: 0x2bd0

Fault address is 4183088 bytes below the first valid
mapping boundary, which is at 0x400000.

This may have been caused by a struct access through a null pointer.
