You should get version 3.5.1.

The problem you had was the following:

You used the following environment variable settings:

    CPPFLAGS=-DNDEBUG -DpgiFortran
    CC=icc
    CXX=
    FC=ifort
    F90=ifort
    CFLAGS=-O
    CXXFLAGS=-O
    FFLAGS=-O -mp -dynamics-libcxa
    F90FLAGS=

The CFLAGS environment variable should contain the "-mp" option.  This
should fix the "Numeric conversion not representable" problem in the C
interface.

The F90FLAGS environment variable should contain the "-mp" option.  This
should fix a similar problem in the Fortran-90 interface that you would
have encountered if the C problem hadn't occurred.

Please try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 and 4 described at

    3.  Set the following environment variables to the indicated values:

            Variable                    Value
            --------                    -----
            CC                          icc
            CXX                         icc
            FC                          ifort
            F90                         ifort
            CPPFLAGS                    -DNDEBUG -DpgiFortran
            CFLAGS                      -O -mp
            CXXFLAGS                    -O -mp
            FFLAGS                      -O -mp -cm -w95 -dynamic-libcxa
            FLIBS                       -Vaxlib

    2.  Perform steps 6 through 9 described at
