[MITgcm-support] teething.. genmake2 with gfortran

Thanks Ed!

I'm using gfortran from some wiki pages found after a frustrating attempt to get gcc-g77, which doesn't ship with gcc in SUSE 10.1 for Mortals (but they kindly include it for businesses running suse Enterprise).  However, the gfortran version i stumbled across is actually 4.2.0.   Specifically, gfortran -dumpversion says:
GNU Fortran 95 (GCC)  4.2.0  20060626 (experimental)
I hope that means i won't have problems with it, as the idea of trying again to get g77 may finally drive me to resign and find work at the supermarket!

That got the run started, but now there's something wrong with eedata.  I've tried using both / and & as the line terminator in /input/eedata (and recompiled from scratch after changing this, just in case) to no avail.  The output i get is listed below (and for what it's worth, the eedata file is copied below this).

More thanks!
