I think I've finally squashed this particular bug which had been
annoying me for quite some time!  It appears that Intel Fortran v11.0
has an optimisation bug in s/r CHK_ALT (i.e. checking alternate atom
codes), & possibly also 10.x - I don't have those to test - though v9.1
& possibly earlier seem to be bug-free (at least this bug anyway!).
Possibly this is fixed in the current version of ifort (11.1), again I
don't have it to test, maybe someone who does can try it.  This affects
compilations using optimisation levels -O2, -Os and -O3, but -O0 and -O1
are unaffected.

So my solution is to recompile with -O1.  The CCP4 6.1.2 distribution
uses -O2 so you need either to fix the makefile, or download Garib's
source code and make sure the makefile you use has the appropriate flag
settings.

As was pointed out earlier, having to use the gfortran-compiled code is
an issue, because at least for the OS I'm using (Centos 4.6),
gfortran-compiled code runs ~ 300% slower than the ifort code!!

Hope this helps!
