Are complex*16 variables static by default?

Hello,

and thanks for the helpful replies.

That's what I would have expected.

Still, if I replace zlarfg/zlarf by my own code or disable OpenMP, the
program seems to work. Wouldn't this indicate that zlarfg/zlarf may
introduce strange side effects?

I am using the LAPACK version of Ubuntu 16.04.1 (version
3.6.0-2ubuntu2). Does it make a difference whether the library is
compiled with "-fopenmp" or just with "-frecursive"?

As far as I can see, zlarfg/zlarf only store scalar values in local
variables.

I'll try downloading LAPACK 3.7 and compiling it myself with "-fopenmp".
May that will fix the problem.

Thanks again and best regards,
Steffen
