I compiled and installed 1/4/02 CVS.

I declaring 2 very large integer arrays: vst(271722256) and
wst(271722256) (1.87 Gb each).  I ran into a small problem by combining
them in a common statement:
	
	common /bigstuff/ vst,wst,marks,force2

The compiler complained that "bigstuff" was too big.  This concerns me,
since I'll be wanting to compile arrays of this size where vst and wst
are 64 bit floating point variables and for even larger sizes.

Toon, do you have any answer for this?

Thanks,
Alex
