Charm++ parallel programming system

[张凯 <zhangk1985 AT gmail.com>]

I am using charm-6.1.3.  Can that patch fix the problem on charm-6.1.3?

When I patch it to ampi.C by using command "patch
src/libs/ck-libs/ampi/ampi.C  AMPI_Cart_shift.patch", it reports :

*patching file src/libs/ck-libs/ampi/ampi.C
Hunk #1 succeeded at 5158 (offset -185 lines).
Hunk #2 FAILED at 5198.
1 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file
src/libs/ck-libs/ampi/ampi.C.rej*

AfterI tried to read the patch file and fix it by myself, i found that there
maybe a lot difference between the released version and development version
of charm source code.

Could you help me build an patch for charm-6.1.3? Or tell me where can i
find stable developemnt version which I can patch it by myself?
