[ncl-install] shell errors during NCL compilation

[Mark Suhovecky]

I am trying to compile ncl 5.2.1 from the source tar. My systems are 64-bit Redhat  Enterprise 5.
I'm using the version 9.0.1 of the Portland Group compiler.

I get many of these sort of make errors: (Doing a make All from the top ncl directory)

Making ./ncarg2d/src/bin/scripts
make[5]: Entering directory `/afs/crc.nd.edu/x86_64_linux/ncl/5.2.1/pgi-9.0/ncl_ncarg-5.2.1/ncarg2d/src/bin/scripts'
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
make[5]: *** [ncargcc] Error 2
make[5]: Leaving directory `/afs/crc.nd.edu/x86_64_linux/ncl/5.2.1/pgi-9.0/ncl_ncarg-5.2.1/ncarg2d/src/bin/scripts'

If I look at this particular Makefile, I see a number of stream editor (sed) commands being run in a shell- not
sure what they do.

/bin/sh on our systems is a symbolic link to a bash shell. Is there perhaps csh-specific syntax embedded somewhere?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks,
