Thank you for the help.
This was indeed the thing that was causing the problem. I now get valuable output.

Kate,
You should do what Rajeev said. That seems like to be the cause of your
problem.
The other issue is that, your version of gfortran does not have sizeof()
intrinsic, too old maybe. Do you have ifort on your machine ? Since
you said your code is written with ifort in mind, you should use ifort
if possible. Using a different fortran compiler may cause some other issues
given your experience... If your machine do have ifort but it is not on
your PATH, configure MPICH2 with
F77=<full-pathname-to-ifort> F90=<full-pathname-to-ifort>.
BTW, ifort should have sizeof() intrinsic...
