[molpro-user] trouble configuring using Intel fortran on amd64 (opteron)

Dear Kelly,

Sorry, I was updating the supported platforms ready for the new release
and it slipped online. The configuration changes for the intel compiler 
on x86_64 haven't been ported back to 2002.6.

Please find attached serial and parallel CONFIG files which will 
hopefully prove useful.

Best wishes,
Nick Wilson
