Martin,

I added SEAICE_clipVelocities=.TRUE., and this has no effect 
on ouput_adm.txt for lab_sea & lab_sea.noseaicedyn
It means that the AD ouput have changed but for an other reason.
Do you know what could it be ? 

And regarding the other things:
- First point is fixed (gfortran stuff).
- Second: with gfortran, seaice_obcs still does not pass the 2+2=4 test
- Third: waiting for suggestions.
