Hi Michael,

Your email above shows that theres no space between the "-mpi" and the
"-of=./../tools/build_options/linux_ia32_pgf77+mpi" options.  You should
have a space there.

The next thing to check is the MITgcm version.  *PLEASE* use a recent
checkpoint such as those available at:

  http://mitgcm.org/download/daily_snapshot/
  http://mitgcm.org/download/

or the latest available from CVS which is working quite nicely right
now.

So with the latest from CVS, I just ran the following on our cluster:

  ../../../tools/genmake2 -mpi 
   -of=../../../tools/build_options/linux_ia32_g77+mpi_cg01  \
   -mods=../code

and it gave no problems.

Ed
