However, I encountered a very strange and very unwelcome problem: When I added a few print statements to the plhist routine to find out what is going on, I had a coredump - I assume that is due to my print statements, though I just checked and did not see anything much that could cause that. To make sure no stray bits and pieces influenced this, I tried to rebuild the whole library and then, out of the blue!, CMake produced errors and failed to generate the makefiles. It complained for instance about files with a .cxx extension being unknown and no Fortran compiler being found. I have now started the comprehensive test script and that works fine! I am unhappily surprised about this. I will try to find out what on Earth is going on/wrong, but it may not be before tomorrow that I can really dig into this.
