i used gcc 4.0 as well. i've played around with it a bit more and i
also came to the conclusion that lapack is probably not to blame.

bingo. i recompiled pawlib/paw/ntuple/qp_hbook_if.c with gcc-3.4 and
paw now works as expected. so i think the problem is with gcc-4.0.

i found some other machines that had older versions of paw installed.
thinking of switching to root though :-)
