This error shouldn't have occurred. Please send me the file "udunits.inc" that 
cause this error.

In this trial, the f90 compiler didn't preprocess the file "udunits.inc". Try 
changing the name of the file to "udunits.F" to see if that will cause 
preprocessing. You'll also have to change the "include" lines in readgeneral.F 
to match.

Steve Emmerson
