[ncl-install] Compiled NCL unable to run normally on command line

[Wing Kai CHEUNG]

I've compiled NCL v6.6.2 on AIX7.2. When I execute .ncl script with 
"ncl" on command prompt, say

***
ncl test.ncl
***

The script is unable to run, and "ncl" gives this error at the end:

***
fatal:NhlRealloc Failed:[errno=12]
fatal:ContourPlotPreDraw: dynamic memory allocation error
fatal:%s: invalid workspace: invalid workspace
fatal:%s: invalid workspace: invalid workspace
fatal:ContourPlotDraw: draw error
fatal:PlotManagerPreDraw: error in plot pre-draw
fatal:_NhlPlotManagerDraw: PreDraw error
fatal:syntax error: line -1 before or near ▒
▒
***

If I add a "<" like this


***
ncl < test.ncl
***

It will run smoothly. This is all good until we find out that this 
workaround doesn't work for other NCL programs in the package. When I try:

***
ncl_convert2nc test.grb
***

It doesn't work at all, and gives these errors:

***
fatal:NclGRIB: Deleting reference to parameter because of decoding error
fatal:NclGRIB: Variable contains no GRIB records
fatal:syntax error: line -1 before or near �
�
***

Adding a "<" in this case will not help, as "ncl_convert2nc" is unable 
to recognize the options.

I thought it is a problem related to the server itself, but when I tried 
to do the same thing with the pre-compiled version of NCL, it just run 
flawlessly. The versions I tried are v5.2.1 and v6.0.0. This makes me 
wonder if I'm doing anything wrong during the compilation. Any clue?


Thank you,
WK.
