Mark,
The pgf90 compiler seems to be complaining about hex constants set in
a data statement like:
INTEGER SMALL
DATA SMALL / X'00800000'/
We are not sure where this construct originally came from, but it
works with many of the compilers we've tried (including f90
compilers). It seems to work with pgf77, but not with pgf90.
The construct:
INTEGER SMALL
DATA SMALL / Z'00800000'/
is what the Fortran 90 Standard supports for setting hex constants
(see Section 4.3.1.1). If you use the above, then it compiles with
*both* pgf77 and pgf90. Please make this change to the "r1mach.F" file,
since this file is what eventually generates the "r1mach.f" file.
I should also point out that we already have pre-compiled binaries and
libraries that were built with the Portland Group f77 compiler under
RedHat Linux 6.2 and 7.1. In most cases you can use a Fortran 90
compiler to link with libraries that were built with Fortran 77.
If you are running RedHat 6.2 or 7.1, and you want to try this, then
go to:
http://ngwww.ucar.edu/ng/download.html
click on the "submit" button towards the middle of the page, and then
download one of the PGI compiled binaries and follow the instructions
for installation.
