Hello to all again.

There is a problem with ifort 9.0. When the option -O3 is used (or any other 
otimization option), the compiler complains with the following error:

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
IPO link: can not find "("
ifort: error: problem during multi-file optimization compilation (code 1)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

There is a known bug using ifort 9.0 and Fedora Core 4. There is still no 
solution to this bug, but a workaround can be done, only with small programs. 
There is a discussion board at intel site about this problem:

http://softwareforums.intel.com/ids/board/message?board.id=11&message.id=2759

I will try to compile with the old ifort 8.03 and do the workaround in the 
makefile_macros. What would be the impact of compile the entire abinit 
without the -o3 flag? Would be a major speed problem?

Thank you.

Ivan
