Re: [AMBER] amber11 Installation Test Failures

Another comment: You can hack the configure script itself and replace all
instances of gcc -> gcc44, g++ -> g++44, and gfortran -> gfortran44.

This should work. The problem is that if you do this in the config.h file,
then netcdf and other packages will be built with the other versions. This
wouldn't normally be a problem, I don't think, except that Amber11 copies
the netcdf module files (netcdf.mod) into each directory instead of
interacting with the API through the library files and header files only (as
will be done in future releases, I believe). In any case, I would not trust
module file compatibilities between gfortran 4.1 and gfortran 4.4.

Hope this helps,
Jason
