Hi,

I am running OSX10.12.

I had gcc 7.3 and gcc 5.5.0_1 installed.

When trying to compile a simple .f90 code (simpling printing some double 
precision complex, a ”hello world” for complex numbers),
I get this error message :

SIGMA>which gfortran
/opt/local/bin/gfortran
SIGMA>gfortran -o essai essai.f90
FATAL:/opt/local/bin/../libexec/as/x86_64/as: I don't understand 'm' flag!

Then I selected the gcc5 version and the FATAL error disappeared. 
I selfupdated MP which moved from 2.5.3 to 2.5.4, and I upgraded outdated.

gcc7.3 still shows the error and gcc5.5.0_3 which was installed in the upgrade 
started to show the same FATAL error !
I tried to return to gcc5.5.0_1 but failed (probably did not do the right 
thing…)

I installed gfortran directly in /usr/local/bin, the version 8.1, and I have no 
FATAL error! I have not yet tried to install gcc8 via Macport but googling a 
little, people with the same problem seem to end up removing macport 
(/opt/local/bin) from their PATH, which is a bit extreme…

Is the problem known and solvable more cleanly ? I’d rather have a single 
gfortran on my laptop.

Thanks,
Laurent
