Chris,

This doesn't tell us which version of the compiler(s) you are using.
Please tell me the results of:

cc -V

and

f77 -V

Yes, this is possible.  Again, the bus error is caused by the compiler
and/or loader, not by the McIDAS code:

f77: Fatal error in ld: Bus Error

I guess that you might check to see which version of the loader/linker
you are using:

which ld

On Sun Solaris systems, this should be the one in /usr/ccs/bin.

>Suggestions?

Let's find out which versions of the compilers and loader you are using.
If this all looks good, you will have to investigate upgrading your
compilation/link environment to the latest patch levels.  I would ask
our system administrator to scope this out, but he is not in today.
