[MITgcm-devel] build on sunos_sun4u_g77

[Patrick Heimbach]

Hi Martin,

if you're OK I'd do the following changes to the sunos_sun_4u_... optfiles:

sunos_4u_g77
o leave gmake but add comment that gmake may not work
  (which it doesn't on these machines, i.e. not installed)
o add 'CC=gcc'

sunos_4u_f77
o comment for gmake
o hard-wire
  FC='/opt/SUNWspro/bin/f77'
  CC='/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc'

-Patrick
