When I logged onto stratus to investigate the cause of the compilation
failure, I found that your Fortran compiler does not like the '-xarch='
flag.  I changed the setting in ~mcidas/.cshrc to:

setenv MySQL_ROOT /usr/local/mysql
#setenv XARCH      "-xarch=m64 -U__x86_64__"
setenv XARCH      "-m64 -U__x86_64__"

to follow guidelines I read in the man page for f95 (f77 actually runs
f95 with some flags set).  I then logged off and logged back on to force
the revised settings to become active.  I found that I had to 'clobber'
the previous attempt at the build since the C source code had been
compiled in 32-bit mode (related to the '-xargs=' setting in ~mcidas/.cshrc).

As I write this note, the compilation is proceeding: the error seen
when trying to build 'convdlm' is gone.  I will leave the build running
to see if any new errors arise.

Cheers,

Tom
