[Wien] compilation problems on AIX with xlf90

I have used version xlf90 version 11 on AIX 6.1 and xlf90 version 14 on
7.1. So, it seems like something that they have fixed.
This:

is about the -qfloat option. That is related to version 8 so is likely not
to help.

Seems to show the same issue with version 10.1. You might want to try
updating xlf90 to the latest 'fix' on the ibm site:
