The above message contained the following:

That might work.

You got me.  I'm afraid I don't know IVE from a hole in the ground.

I suggest you contact IVE help.

The binaries might work.  If they don't, then it's probably
because you're using a different Fortran compiler -- one whose
calling-conventions differ from the Fortran compiler assumed during the
build of the binary.  If that's the case, then you'll have to build from
source.

Now that's bizarre!  Does the file

    /coot1/IVE/udunits-1.12.0/src/port/Makefile
    
exist?  If so, then please send it to me.
