[FLASH-USERS] "relocation truncated to fit" error

  Hi all,

I am getting the following linking error:

The problem goes away if I reduce the number of maxblocks to 100 or
if I set nxb=nyb=nzb=8 instead of nxb=nyb=nzb=16 but this
"solution" is not optimal for computational reasons. I am wondering
if there is some compilation
option to fix this problem. According to Google there are some
compilation options such as -mcmodel=medium -fPIC -i-dynamic. I tried 
these but got very similar error messages, i.e., all related to the
"relocation truncated to fit" linking error.

I would be grateful for some sugestion if anybody encountered a similar
problem and managed to fix it.

   thanks,
     Mateusz

P.S. I am using ifort with
