Sorry, I obviously completely missed the second part of your post......

Not sure after that.  I think I had the same problem at some point
and it only worked if I got rid of the suffix option and didn't make
a second mdrun executable with suffix.  Instead I just made the main mdrun
be mpi capable.  And it worked.  Not sure why though.
