[MITgcm-support] problem running on OS X

Samar,

 I just noticed one other thing in your output. At the top there is a line

PID.TID 0000.0001) // MITgcm UV Release: $Name:  $
 
 for a clean checkout of checkpoint53 this is supposed to read

PID.TID 0000.0001) // MITgcm UV Release: $Name: checkpoint53 $

 Its not clear that this has anything to do with your problem, but if you
have a moment could you do an exp0 run in 
 a clean directory
 e.g

 cvs co -d c53 -r checkpoint53 MITgcm/
 etc.... 

 That might give another clue.

Thanks,

Chris
