variablesizecommunicatortest-mpi-4 failed sometimes on the first try. Not quite sure if this should be merged.

I can confirm. This seems to be an issue with variablesizecommunicatortest, it does something special with more than 2 ranks:

        // We also want to check the case where the interface is empty on some
        // processes. Therefore we artificially lower the numer of processes
        // if it is larger than two. Thus the last rank will not send anything
        // and we check for deadlocks.
        if(procs>2)
            --procs;

@ansgar: @markus.blatt has fixed this [edit: the variablesizecommunication issue] in !416 (merged). Can this be merged now?

@joe: I'll rebase on current master (including the fix) and merge if the build passes.
