I suspect that the absoft compiler do not user "underlines" in the 
function names. R for MacOS actually add a "_" symbol to fortran 
functions. This is because Mac f2c uses this convention.

Can you please try to do this witht he absoft compiler ? I do not own 
this compiler but it would be very important to understand what is going 
on.
