6     C | Parallel directives to generate multithreaded code for |
7     C | various different compilers. The master preprocessor |
8     C | file CPP_OPTIONS is used to select which of these options|
9     C | is included in the code. |
10     C | Note: Only some of the directives require end blocks. |
11     C | For directives which don't require end blocks there|
12     C | is no entry here. |

17     C-- Parallel directives for Kuck and Associates compiler.
18     C-- This is used to generate multi-threaded code on Digital
19     C-- systems. It can also be used under NT.
20     C-- Note: The KAP parallel proceesing tool has several bugs
21     C-- which means that if there are more threads (set via
22     C-- setenv PARALLEL) than iterations in the parallel
23     C-- loop the extra threads start on the section
24     C-- after the loop!
25     C-- To work around this we could place an extra dummy
26     C-- parallel section here. KAP places a barrier at the
27     C-- start of each parallel region which ensures that
28     C-- the extra threads wait (note this wait is in a busy loop).
29     C-- Without this feature the extra thread(s) will run on and may
30     C-- halt the program by calling STOP! Unfortunately that seems
31     C-- to cause a deadlock in a KAP library routine! Instead the
32     C-- current solution is to check for a thread reaching the
33     C-- shutdown part of main.F before other threads have
34     C-- completed computation ( see eedie.F ).
