I think you meant diffusion_mpi above.  I run the commands and found one 
of the roots of the problem: this simulation needs the libfft3-mpi-dev 
package.

I am using the 2.1.4 tarball, and:

I used the Debian package that I generated, based on the 2.1.4 release.

At any rate, thanks for your feedback.  All the simulation tests are 
working now, provided that I apply the patch attached below.  It seems 
that there is an error in quoting the command line string.

I will try include a call to run_tests.py to the building process of the 
Debian package for xmds2.  It I succeed to do it, then the correct 
functioning of xmds2 will be checked before the upload of the package.
