Ryan and Neil, I can't speak for any changes since 5.11.1, however you will need to set the MTMACH parameter to a little endian type for an intel in $GEMPAK/include/MCHPRM.Darwin. The power mac I developed the 5.11.1 release on was big endian, and GEMPAK has some legacy settings for byte order in fortran rather than newer endian tests in the code, so I set the big endian MTAPOL value in 5.11.1 for byte order. If you are building on a little endian platform, try setting MTMACH=MTLNUX. The byte order error is apparent in reading the binary map files since then need to be flipped for little endian processors (as well as data from GEMPAK data files which you would eventually run up against).
