This is one of our main reasons we maintain multiple commercial compilers - letting our users easily build code that is dependent on a specific compiler. I suspect the cost of the compiler easily outweighs the cost of our time to try and help them get it working (if possible), not to mention the potential opportunity "cost" to the researchers of them giving up on HPC because they can't get it to work and it doesn't occur to them to ask for help. cheers, Chris -- Christopher Samuel - (03) 9925 4751 - Systems Manager The Victorian Partnership for Advanced Computing P.O.
