I'd like to have PVM automatically read my hostfile.  For example, XPVM
reads .xpvm_hosts upon startup, but I see no similar function for PVM.

The problem is that when the pvmd starts up on another machine, it needs
the hostfile in order to get the "ep=" path for program executables.

Any suggestions?
