   "-fast" is a macro option that expands to several optimization  
flags, and the flags to which it expands are dependent upon the  
version of the compiler.  When something like this happens, it is  
useful to obtain the expansion of -fast from the compiler  
documentation and try the options individually, and determine which  
one is breaking the compiled code.
