Description Dane 2016-09-07 12:48:24 UTC 
The intel fortran support people say this is a linker problem, and I agree.

OS: SUSE linux
error:ld: BFD (GNU Binutils; SUSE Linux Enterprise 11) 2.23.1 internal error, aborting at ../../bfd/reloc.c line 444 in bfd_get_reloc_size

ld: Please report this bug.


When googling for the error, I found there is a known bug in the Red Hat Linux
linker which produces this exact error message. But since I am using SUSE Linux
they MIGHT not be the same error. In any event, I was unable to find what causes
the problem, and how to prevent it.

Please try binutils 2.27.

Impossible with current bfd/reloc.c
