------- Comment #1 from dominiq at lps dot ens dot fr 2008-09-18 21:10 -------
If I am right real(10) is a leftover of the "coprocessor" era and is a
peculiarity of the x86 processors (may be also 68k, I cannot remember). I think
for all the other platforms with "fortran_large_real" use real(16).
If this is correct a short term solution is to have two programs, one for
"fortran_large_real" and *86* (and may be || *68k*) and one for
"fortran_large_real" and !*86* (using the right syntax for the platform
selection).
