Hi Mike,
I encountered the same exact issue under OS X not long ago, and it
turned out to be caused by memory/atom limitations of Fink's sfcheck
(I assume that's what you are using?):
Sol_ --- SFCHECK --- /Vers 7.2.02; 01.10.2006/ -
Sol_ Memory: 30 Mb N_atom_max: 50000 - <= !!!
so that using the sfcheck binary included with BALBES:
Sol_ --- SFCHECK --- /Vers 7.02.4; 02.05.2007/ -
Sol_ Memory: 60 Mb N_atom_max: 100000 -
solved the problem. How many atoms are you playing with?
HTH, Luca
