[molpro-user] MPPX version for SGI Altix

Hi,

I have been trying to get the MPPX version of Molpro running on our  
SGI Altix 4700. I have compiled it using the same options as I used  
for the MPP version except using -mppx instead of -mpp. The code  
compiles without any problems but when I run the job below, the  
optimization works fine but the frequencies produced are completely  
wrong. In addition to this, 2 and 4 processor jobs hang at the end  
when they try to release the memory with the error message:

1:kr_malloc: kr_free: block not found in used list

The code is patched to patch level 149, compiled with intel/cc/ 
0.1.044 and intel/fc/9.1039, and linked to cmkl-8.1/ilp64 and ga-4-0-1.

I would be grateful if anyone could let me know if they have got this  
to work on a similar architecture and if there are any other options  
I could use when compiling the code which might help,

Many thanks,

Sarah Wilsey
