Comment:

 Replying to [comment:5 drkirkby]:
 > I think it is important to add on platforms such as Solaris, AIX and HP-
 UX, where both 32 and 64-bit builds are supported, the library path
 '''must''' point to the 32-bit library if building 32-bit, and must point
 to a 64-bit library if building 64-bit.

 Done. Fixed in the updated README.txt.

 > (How about OS X? Perhaps the fortran.spkg takes care of that.)

 Also fixed in the updated README.txt. For Mac OS X, I have removed the
 reference to ticket #7095, as the issue contained therein has been fixed.
