Did you try a picky compiler and crank up the warning level ?
This might help some; in basics.h
#define MAXSTRINGLENGTH 1069
Even though 1069 is
the first four-digit quasiall-even-digits non-quasi-repdigit emirp,
something like 83 may be big enough (although there is not thorough
checking of string lengths).

Maybe you could use double for the frcmod reading then later cast it
down to float; probably mesy to do inside leap. What kind of trouble ?
I dont understand 'original fortran.[ch]'.

Perhaps you can use a big shared memory machine ?
Naturally, you are using tleap; maybe there are some leaplib things
that you don't need ?

Good luck,
Scott
