Hi Jamie,

That optfile:

  MITgcm/tools/build_options/sunos_sun4u_f77

works nicely on at least one Sun Sparc system as you can see at:

http://mitgcm.org/testing/results/2006_01/tr_rays1_20060122_0/summary.txt

so I'm not sure whats happening on your Sparc system.  The first thing
to check is whether your "f77" command calls a Sun-supplied compiler
(eg. Sun's Forte suite) or is a link to a Gnu compiler.  So please run
the following commands:

  which f77
  f77 -v
  f77 -help

and, by looking at the output, see which one you have.  Once you have
determined which compiler it is, then pick the appropriate optfile:

  Sun:  OPTFILE="MITgcm/tools/build_options/sunos_sun4u_f77"
  Gnu:  OPTFILE="MITgcm/tools/build_options/sunos_sun4u_g77"

You can then test things with, for example:

  export CVSROOT=':pserver:cvsanon at mitgcm.org:/u/gcmpack'
  cvs co MITgcm
  cd MITgcm/verification
  ./testreport -of $OPTFILE -t 'exp0 exp4 global_ocean.90x40x15'

So please give it a try and let us know.

Ed
