hmmm... why the 64 bit integer version? unless you have _very_ 
large problems, this will only waste memory and slow down 
performance. also this will break most legacy codes (as many 
fortran codes assume that integer is integer*4, i.e. 32bit).

it is quite possible that this is related to the configure 
script not recognizing the 64-bitness of your compiler.
please change all g95 instances in your make.sys to
g95 -i4
and then do a make clean  and a make all again.

cheers,
