In contradiction tohttp://uszla.me.uk/space/software/FoX/compat/, the
Intel 10.1 compiler on x86_64 (I tried 10.1.008 as well as 10.1.013) fails
to build the package.

The first error is

ifort -c -g -fpp -I../objs/finclude -DFC_HAVE_FLUSH -DFC_HAVE_ABORT -DFC_ABORT_ARG -DFC_EOR_LF -DRESTRICTED_ASSOCIATED_BUG
m_common_attrs.F90
fortcom: Error: m_common_attrs.F90, line 284: This name does not have a type, and must have an explicit type.   [GET_KEY_INDEX]
     character(len=size(dict%list(get_key_index(dict,key))%d%value)) :: value

My (tentative) opinion is that there is indeed a bug in ifort.

Thanks for this. It is a bug in ifort, but it masked a couple of other
bugs in FoX which ifort picked up.

In any case, I've rewritten the code to work around ifort's bug, and
checked it with Reinhard. The result is an updated version of FoX
(4.0.1), available as before from http://www.uszla.me.uk/FoX/source/
