Parallel Fortran: local COMMON blocks

[Bron Campbell Nelson]

I am attempting to track down a rumored bug, and am hoping to reach
its originator on the net.

I recieved a phone call from one of our field support people saying
that when their customer used the parallel Fortran compiler, the
loader would complain if they used too many "local" COMMON blocks.

I have not been able to reproduce this problem, and I have stupidly lost
my notes of the phone call, so I don't remember who it was that called.
If anyone reading this has had a similar problem (and in particular, if
you are the original source of the report) please let me know.  Better
yet, file a formal bug with the Hotline people.

Thank you for your support.
