Odd warning messages from linker/compiler?

In the course of "porting" an application from the Alpha to the Itanium platform, I ran into an odd error message:

 

The scenerio:

 

HP zx6000 (1.50GHz/6.0MB) running OpenVMS V8.4

 

 

HP Fortran V8.2-104939

 

The source FORTRAN file contained many modules 1 of which has a warning about a variable being used before it is defined (I'll fix that later as it is in a module that is not currently used.)  The linker reports compiler warnings for 5 modules rather than 1.  It seems, that once a compiler warning is encountered, any module "linked" after that is also flagged as having warnings even when they do not.  There are 4 subroutines/functions in the suource file after the one with the error.

 

Since this application is a home grown one (my use only), I am using the hobbyist license and thus do not have a way to officially report this.  Can someone that has a contract forward this along?  This is new to Itanium as this is not a problem on the Alpha.

 

Thanks,

Dan
