Re: WRAPIT in x86_64

Hi Melissa,

The problem with WRAPIT is that NCL was compiled with -fPIC, but WRAPIT
has no provision for adding additional options
on the compile line.

I've attached a new WRAPIT that should automatically include the -fPIC
option if it detects you are on a Linux system and
using gcc. I've only tested this on a couple of systems so please give
it a try and let me know if it works.

As for the previous WRAPIT question, I probably answered that offline
and forgot to post the answer back to the group.
We usually try to do this!
