Hi Dave,
I think you found it.

$ grep CTOFLIBS Makefile
CTOFLIBS = -lm -lifcore -lifport -lstdc++
        @sed -e 's+SED_CC+$(CC)+' -e 's+SED_LIBSEARCH+$(LIBSEARCH)+' -e 's+SED_STDDEF+$(STD_DEFINES)+' -e 's+SED_PROJDEF+$(PROJECTDEFINES)+' -e 's+SED_LDCFLAGS+$(CC_LDOPTIONS)+' -e 's+SED_SYSTEM_INCLUDE+$(SYSTEM_INCLUDE)+' -e 's+SED_XLIB+$(XLIB)+' -e 's+SED_PNGLIB+$(PNGLIB)+' -e 's+SED_CTOFLIBS+$(CTOFLIBS)+' -e 's+SED_LIBDIR+$(LIBDIR)+' -e 's+SED_INCDIR+$(INCDIR)+' -e 's+SED_NCARGDIR+$(NCARGDIR)+' -e 's+SED_ROBJDIR+$(ROBJDIR)+' <ncargcc.csh >ncargcc

I had added -lstdc++ to CtoFLibraries in $NCARG/config/LINUX because previously I'd been getting errors like:

/usr/projects/compilers/intel/8.1.037/lib/libifcore.so.6: undefined reference to `__cxa_end_catch'
/usr/projects/compilers/intel/8.1.037/lib/libifcore.so.6: undefined reference to `std::terminate()'
/usr/projects/compilers/intel/8.1.037/lib/libifcore.so.6: undefined reference to `__cxa_begin_catch

sed must be interpreting those plus signs on stdc++ as delimiters.

Is there a better way to fix the original errors?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

If you look at the Makefile in each of the directories that give the
error you will see that sed is run with multiple '-e' arguments for
each of the commands it is trying to build.
I am guessing that the 'expression #x' part of the error message is
referring to the particular '-e' argument that results in the error.
Following this hypothesis the failing commands are:
-e 's+SED_CTOFLIBS+$(CTOFLIBS)+' # for ncargcc
-e 's+SED_EXTRA_LDLIBS+$(EXTRA_LDLIBS)+' # for MakeNcl
-e 's+SED_CTOFLIBS+$(CTOFLIBS)+' # for nhlf77

Not all the same, but looking a little further in the ncl directory,
you can see if you trace back the EXTRA_LDLIBS also includes
CTOFLIBS. Therefore my guess is that there is something that your
version of sed does not like about the way your CTOFLIBS is defined.

So can you look in any of these Makefiles and see what the definition
of CTOFLIBS is?
