My dear Eric,
	Even I don't know what are the problems with adverbs!!!

I did use gcc 3.3 when I installed 31DEC03 version. Infact, I had
installed gcc 3.3 at that time only and used the same version this time
while upgrading AIPS. But that time I had redhat 9 on my machine and now I
have Fedora core 2. Can that be a problem? Which gcc version shall I use
for installing AIPS? You are right. LISTR doesn't work with opcode 'MATX'.
I seem to be in soup!!
