[MITgcm-support] domain size limit?

Hi Ryan

Your gfortran is 64-bit and seems to have been built with gcc 4.7.1.
However, that is not the gcc 4.2.1, which is 32-bit,
and which seems to take precedence in your PATH.

I wonder if you can locate your gcc 4.7.1, and modify your PATH to
point to it (Would this break other Mac functionality? Maybe ...),
and/or point to gcc 4.7.1 full path in the MITgcm build_options file.
Hopefully this will take care of the link error.

I hope this helps,
Gus Correa
