pgfortran issue -- failed to compile -- two tests failed

[neffw]

I tried to compile FGSL with PGI's fortran compiler and got the following error messages:

PGF90-S-0034-Syntax error at or near VALUE (./interface/ode.finc: 141)
PGF90-S-0034-Syntax error at or near VALUE (./interface/spmatrix.finc: 61)
  0 inform,   0 warnings,   2 severes, 0 fatal for fgsl

Apparently pgfortran does not like value statements. After replacing the statements by attributes the code compiled but two tests failed:

FAIL: spmatrix
FAIL: splinalg

There are also two XFAILs but I think they are expected:

XFAIL: error
XFAIL: error_1

Please refer to the attached files for details.

• error.txt
• error_1.txt
• splinalg.txt
• spmatrix.txt

Looks like a compiler bug to me. Did you use the latest version of this compiler?

You are right, tschoonj. I installed the brand-new pgfortran 17.4 released just a few days ago. It accepts the value statement and the errors are gone. Thanks for the fast reply.
