I know this is asking too much, but would it be possible for you to
debug ecl_min.exe? You just need to launch the program from inside
GDB, write (ROUND 0.3d0) and provide me with the backtrace of what
happened. The code that is invoked, round_double() in num_co.d is
pretty innocent: it uses only floor() and performs no division by
values which could be potentially zero!
