[ncl-install] NCL 5.1.0 / sed problem on IA64 cluster

[Mark Van Moer]

Hello, I'm attempting to build NCL 5.1.0 on an IA64 cluster. The build has three sed errors:

make[5]: Entering directory `/usr/projects/vis/ncl/ncl_ncarg-5.1.0/ncarg2d/src/binscripts'
sed: -e expression #9, char 45: unknown option to `s'
make[5]: *** [ncargcc] Error 1

Similar errors appear 2 other times later in the build:

sed: -e expression #4, char 62: unknown option to `s'
make[4]: *** [MakeNcl] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/projects/vis/ncl/ncl_ncarg-5.1.0/ni/src/ncl'

sed: -e expression #5, char 45: unknown option to `s'
make[4]: *** [nhlf77] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/projects/vis/ncl/ncl_ncarg-5.1.0/ni/src/scripts'


Is sed not liking how a makefile macro is being expanded? Anyone know what I should approach troubleshooting this? Searching seems to indicate a possible problem with delimiters. Is it possible a macro is expanding that contains the delimiter?

Thanks for any help,
Mark
