without this patch --with-knem=no doesn't work
this is useful when knem software is installed but the knem device is not enabled. So this message:
WARNING: Open MPI failed to open the /dev/knem device due to a permissions problem. Please check with your system administrator to get the permissions fixed, or set the smsc MCA variable to "^knem" to silence this warning and run without knem support.
is avoided without needing the user to set an MCA parameter, etc.
