[BProc] c functions on nodes

[henken <he...@se...>]

I am playing around with some of the bproc C functions, and I have noticed
that most of them do not work on the nodes if the program is started
locally on the node instead of through bpsh. here is the sample program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/bproc.h>

int main() {
	printf("currnode: %d\n", bproc_currnode()):
}

when invoked via bpsh:
# bpsh <node> test
the out put is as expected, that the right node number is printed.
However, when I ssh to the node and run it:
# ssh node<node>
# ./test

I always get -1 as the output. Is this the correct behavior? If so, how
would I get the information I am looking for with out using bpsh?
