Sounds like a typical case of not specifying any -L and/or -l options. In
this case the ctest.so module has an undefined reference to the symbol
ompi_mpi_comm_world and cannot resolve it. So either it was not linked
properly or the loader cannot find the required library.

Apply nm -D and ldd to the .so and see what ails.
