Here's the transcript of the end of the build phase: The test target appears to only do something if TARGET is not set: ~~~~~~ tests : ifndef NOFORTRAN ifndef TARGET ifndef CROSS touch $(LIBNAME) ifndef NO_FBLAS $(MAKE) -C test all ifdef UTEST_CHECK $(MAKE) -C utest all endif endif ifndef NO_CBLAS $(MAKE) -C ctest all endif endif endif endif ~~~~~~ Since we do pass TARGET=3DSICORTEX the tests are skipped. I don=E2=80=99= t know if there=E2=80=99s a good reason for this. ~~ Ricardo
