Did you neglect to do a "make clean" before trying the compilation? The
compile step did not try to remake any of the *.o files, suggesting that you
may still have older versions from some other compiler lying around.

If this doesn't help, please check that you can compile any fortran program.
We deliberatly begin Amber builds with a very simple and small program, so
errors here are usually beyond our control.

...good luck...dac
