No, all the results are fine. By "broken" I mean that it might crash in places that it would not have crashed in v6 or that it just would not have been running in parallel when you think it was.

No, use of -threads or -openmp will always trigger the openmp code. The -parallel may introduce other parallel. I did not write this part of the code so I'm not sure, and I think I might have broken the -parallel implementation when I did the last recon-all rewrite
Ah, that's good to know. I will remove the redundancy in our scripts then.
What do you mean by "may have broken"? Broken as in we have to worry about results? We are currently running a couple of thousand subjects with 7.1.1 and they appear to be running fine so far *with* -parallel and -openmp 4 with an average core utilization of around 2.4 out of the possible 4.
