[Beowulf] g03 and centos 3.6

[Mike Davis]

Chris,

I may have talked to that friend. The real issue is that the earlier 
compiler worked then the later one didn't. The latest version does work 
however.

I do not believe that anyone broke anything to do with the software. I 
have compiled G03 on a variety of platforms. This case is the first one 
where I had a problem.
