I was using large fortran arrays with no trouble a year ago using the
-Wl,--stack option to enlarge the stack, but it is no longer working for
me. Same machine, but with cygwin upgrades and with SP2 for the XP
pro. Something has changed.
I have these problems on Windows 2000. I suspect it is Cygwin and/or gcc
that has changed.
Switching to g95 is a poor option. Both g95 and gfortran are currently
beta software, and it is gfortran that is destined to replace g77 in the
next version of gcc.
Right now, poor options are the only ones available.
There is now a Mingw version of gfortran. Does that help?
