I did succeed in getting a simple task that generates large images to compile and run to generate images of 4 GB. So, then I tried to compile a large package with about 105 tasks and got a number of errors. After fixing the ones that I could figure out, I'm left with a bunch of errors that look like:libpkg.a(l_to_theta.o): In function `tltota_':
/home/duvall/cedpub1_iraf/travelt/l_to_theta.x:48: relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32 against symbol `mem_' defined in *ABS* section in /tmp/T_x_travelt.e.s9OwzbAfter looking at the 'Porting Guide' and studying the code, I'm not sure what is going on. The task in question is reasonably short (90 lines) and so I append it at the end of this message. It's also available at http://sun.stanford.edu/~duvall/Data/l_to_theta.x.
Help!
Thanks.

Hi Tom, The message was reported a few times before and seems to be somewhat related to the use of AMD machines and/or certain versions of GCC (specificall 4.2 or newer). We don't have a wide variety of 64-bit machines here so I haven't been able to fully test how to build in the most cross-platform manner. In any event.... This appears to be a compiler optimizer bug of some kind, but I haven't tracked down specifically what's getting screwed up or where. In any case, all you should need to do is edit the hlib$mkpkg.inc file and add a "-x" flag to the XFLAGS definition for the linux64 arch, i.e.[code:1:a9d2d08647]
:
$else $ifeq (MACH, linux64) then
$set XFLAGS = "-x -c -w -/g -/m64" # default XC compile flags
:
[/code:1:a9d2d08647]If you still see the problem after this let me know (don't forget to remove the existing binaries in the package!).Cheers,
-Mike

Mike,
Thanks, that fixed the problem. I'm now able to get an executable. Now to test 105 tasks!
