[SUMMARY] Nag and loader problem after Fortran upgrade.

Hi DU Admins

My question was about a problem with the Nag shared libraries
after an upgrade of Fortran from 3.7 to 4.1 on alphas running
DU 3.2g.

I didn't get any replies which was no surprise since it was
such a strange problem. I'm posting a summary anyway just
in case anyone else ever gets caught by this.

I got the solution from Nag. There's a bug in their script
for building the shared libraries. They sent me a patch and
it works.

The mystery about this - both to me and to Nag - is why the buggy
shared libraries ever worked and why they continued to work under
DU 4.0[bc] but not under 3.2g after the Fortran upgrade.
