Hello,
just to add to the new mailing list archive (great idea!):
Off the list I was asked why my figures with the GNU compilers
were so bad. Both the archive and by mail, the answer was to
upgrade the compiler version to gcc >= 2.95.2.
I installed Redhat7 and tried with version the gnu tools version 2.96 
( I guess I could have changed to mandrake 7.2 and try 2.95.2)
