[MITgcm-support] teething.. genmake2 with gfortran

Thanks Martin,

{I had checked that ln was there and that the write permissions were ok (not sure that you realised how long my first email was!).. the problem turns out to have been that you can't make a symbolic link on an external hard drive.  I was running the code from /verification/exp2/input, which is what the manual instructs - i guess brainy folk would have recognised straight up that 'build' is more appropriate.}
..

Anyway, now it compiles, yay!  But it doesn't run. The error concerns a link which is patently visible to me from an ls in the shell and to Konqueror, and has rwx permissions, as does the file to which it links, and the full path to them is in PATH - any ideas?  Here is the screen output (the piped output is an empty file) and the details of the file that shouldn't exist:
