What do you mean?
I think that if an MPI implementation needs the argv, it can have its
own implementation of MPI_Init in Fortran that calls GET_COMMAND and
GET_COMMAND_ARGUMENT; the argc/argv arguments to MPI_INIT in C are
allowed be NULL,NULL.

Will this be able to handle MPI implementations that use integers as
MPI handles in C?
