romio assumes that all predefined datatypes are contiguous. Because of
the (terribly named) composed datatypes MPI_SHORT_INT, MPI_DOUBLE_INT,
MPI_LONG_INT, etc this is an incorrect assumption. The simplest way to
fix this is to override the MPI_Type_get_envelope and
MPI_Type_get_contents calls with calls that will work on these
datatypes. Note that not all calls to these MPI functions are
replaced, only the ones used when flattening a non-contiguous
datatype.
