Hello Ted thanks for the otool output.

teds-imac:opal_svn Ted$ otool -L opal.1.1.9.mac 
opal.1.1.9.mac:
    /opt/local/lib/libgsl.0.dylib (compatibility version 16.0.0, current version 16.0.0)
    /opt/local/lib/libgslcblas.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
    /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.3)
    /Users/adelmann/extlib/openmpi-1.4.3/lib/libmpi_cxx.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.1.0)
    /Users/adelmann/extlib/openmpi-1.4.3/lib/libmpi.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.0)
    /Users/adelmann/extlib/openmpi-1.4.3/lib/libopen-rte.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
    /Users/adelmann/extlib/openmpi-1.4.3/lib/libopen-pal.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
    /usr/lib/libutil.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
    /opt/local/lib/gcc46/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.15.0)
    /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 125.2.11)
    /opt/local/lib/gcc46/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)

I guess that the dynamic libraries are not found, for some unknown reasons. As far as I understand 

the path: /Users/adelmann/extlib/openmpi-1.4.3/lib does not mean much, as long as the dylib's are found,

however here my MAC knowledge ends. 

One thing you can try is to make a symlink from your openmpi/lib to /Users/adelmann/extlib/openmpi-1.4.3/lib

I have all the prerequisite libraries installed

Every attempt to run the executable produces nothing but errors.
