7.1.1 Link Failed

A change was made in the default suffix applied to prodecure names between versions 10.0 and 10.1. In the more recent version an underscore (_) is automatically appended to procedure names at compile time causing problems for the linker.

The problem is easily solved by adding the compiler option -YEXT_SFX="" to the makefile for each Fortran program in the makefile.
