PROBLEM #1 (17 AUGUST 1988) EVA HATCHERSON:

  Object modules delivered from RCA, when they were linked down here on our
VAX, produced a smaller executable than the executable delivered from RCA.
The sizes in the object files, however, did match.

       facts:
       ------

        RCA system                              NSWC system
        ----------                              -----------
        VMS  version 4.5                           4.6
        FORTRAN      4.6                           4.7
        LINKER       V04-00                        V04-00

SOLUTION #1:

  Called COLORADO, and they said that a LINK/NOSHARE command will produce a
larger executable file because it causes any modules from the run-time library
to be put right into the "code" at compile time.

  LINK/SHARE pulls the "code" in at run-time, therefore producing a smaller
executable.

  ANALYZE/IMAGE  should give an indication of how the file was linked or the
map file.  Also, if there are any INCLUDE statements in the file, this may
cause the sizes of the executables to be different in that the files INCLUDED
may be different depending on the version of VMS or FORTRAN.
