[MITgcm-devel] gfortran 4.4.5

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi,

It looks like the recent version of gfortran (from 2010-11-12)
 gcc 4.4.5 (with FC.13), which is now on baudelaire 
is having problems with many namelist in several verification 
experiments (38 FWD + 3 AD experiments failed).

The problem is related to things like:
 fields(1,1) = 'THETA   ','SALT    ',
found in many data.diagnostics
or similarly, in exp4/input/data.ptracers:
 PTRACERS_ref(1,1) = 8*35.,

If I changed data.ptracers to:
 PTRACERS_ref(1:8,1) = 8*35.,
then it works with gfortran 4.4.5 but it does not work with
some version of pgf77.

As a test, I was going to change exp4/input/data.ptracers 
to see which compiler can read: PTRACERS_ref(1:8,1) = 8*35.,

But if someone has a better idea ...

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
