Hi Mary,

Thank you very much!

I have backuped all my data and cleaned my hard disk for installing a total
new Mac OS X 10.6 system.

I installed Xcode from the install DVD. Now I have gcc-4.2 and gfortran-4.2.
I will give try to precompiled binary file.
And then try install the dependencies one by one.

Keeping letting you know.

Thanks.

Guangshan
