Sorry for the delay in response,

Let me suggest a two-step process, then:
1. let's change the error message as this is easily done and thus can be

2. I can look at how to eat the rankfile as a hostfile. This may not even be
possible - the problem is that the entire system is predicated on certain
ordering due to our fram

So if I understand that correctly, it means you have to assign all
literals in your fortran program with a "_16" suffix. I don't know if

But I modified our configure test and now the types seem to match.
