Hello people,

  I am trying to compile abinip on an Opteron cluster (the jacquard machine
at NERSC, in case anyone knows it) with the PathScale f90 compiler and the
mvapich version of MPI.

  I get the code to compile, but when I try to calculate the response
function I get the following error:

**** Segmentation fault!  Fault address: (nil)
                                                                            
This is likely to have been caused by either a null pointer dereference or a
general protection fault.
                                                                            
                                                                            
**** Segmentation fault!  Fault address: 0xc5e8
                                                                            
Fault address is 4143640 bytes below the first valid
mapping boundary, which is at 0x400000.
                                                                            
This may have been caused by a struct access through a null pointer.

I'm running a modified version of the H2 tutorial as a test. I get this same
error (with different fault addresses) regardless of the options I select
during the compilation. I'm using an adapted version of
makefile_macros.Pathscale2.1-64_sleepy.

The compile options have been stripped down to the bare minimum, removin all
optimization. Still, the segfault remains.

Anybody has any experience with this combination of compiler and mpi?

Best regards and thanks in advance, Fer.
