We've been experiencing some instability on the clusters (particularly Cardinal and Ascend). 

Type mismatch error

Category:

Affected Software: 

GNU compiler versions 10+ may have Fortran compiler errors like

Error: Type mismatch between actual argument at (1) and actual argument at (2) (REAL(4)/REAL(8))

that result in a error response during configuration

configure: error: The Fortran compiler gfortran will not compile files that call
the same routine with arguments of different types.

This can be caused when codes are using types that don't match the subroutine arguement types. The mismatches are now reject with an error to warn about future errors that may occur. It is bypassable by appending the -fallow-argument-mismatch arguement while calling gfortran.
