[GEMPAK #VBA-759926]: Building _gif programs in GEMPAK

Hi Chris,

I can not remember if there have been updates to the _gif build for gdplot2 
since GEMPAK6.4.0.  I always recommend installing the latest version (7.0) for 
bug fixes and table updates.

Your Makefile has a programs_gif section or you wouldn't get far enough to see 
the MCHPRM.PRM error.  I build gdplot2_gif on linux64 fc12 and don't see the 
same error as you, so I would like to see your gdplot2/Makefile and Gemenviron 
file. 

Gemenviron will determine which/Makeinc.common* file to include, which will 
determine which Makeinc.linux* file to include, which will then determine which 
MCHPRM file to use... for example:

Makeinc.linux64_gfortran:OPSYS = Linux
Makeinc.linux64_gfortran:MCHSYS = MCHPRM.$(OPSYS)_gfortran

So my guess is that the wrong file is being linked... will have to look at the 
file to know.
