[MITgcm-support] MITgcm fresh install error.

[Patrick Heimbach]

Baylor,

quite strange.
What's happening is that instead of using the
SIZE.h customed for exp0 and residing in code/
you end up using, for some reason, the "default"
one in model/inc/ which is deliberately meant
to crash to remind you that you need to custom
it to your domain.

The "-mods ../code" is meant to link those
headers to your compile dir.
(you should see a soft link of SIZE.h to ../code/ )
Not sure why it doesn't do it
(a very old RedHat version??).
