Dear Oliver,

thank for advice, however prtconf reports: "Processor Type:
PowerPC_POWER5" so I should be probably fine with -qarch=pwr5, also it's
kinda strange that you fixed this by setting pwr7. I thought that those
optimization flags were forward compatible... 

For example: IBM docs I've just googled states that -qarch=pwr3
"Produces object code containing instructions that will run on the
POWER5, POWER5+, POWER6, or POWER7 hardware platforms"

So IMHO compiling with -qarch=pwr5 for pwr7 shouldn't break anything
unless some other weird stuff is going on.

Best regards
