Yes, disabling readline makes the problem go away. I've read
http://www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=running#mpirun-curses-readline
Is there any method to minimize the impact that openmpi has on the
spawning program, stdin in particular?

Setting iof_base_window_size=0 seemed to help, though it could be my
imagination since the problem's effects don't seem to be very
consistent.
