I have a rather funny and annoying problem with a third-party

While this does mean that the Fortran program is not written
sufficiently carefully, the difference between i386 and amd64 could be
due to x87 and SSE floating-point units. See David Monniaux's
interesting article: http://arxiv.org/abs/cs/0701192.
also try disabling the optimizations, compile with -Wall,
-fbounds-check options and see if there is any change in the final
results.
Also try -float-store.
