Hi Michael,

thanks a lot for your input!
The compiler on my system should use 64bit as default,
but to be sure I included the -m64 flag for both the IC generator
as well as the code itself. Unfortunately it still doesn't work.

Do you remember which flags you used to get it to work again after this
error occurred?
Was it also -m64 or did you use something else?

Greets,

Sylvia
