[Ipopt] Problems linking with gfortran libraries in Snow Leopard

[Peter Carbonetto]

Hi Anil, this is the command I used to compile the Ipopt libraries on Snow 
Leopard. Does it work for you too?

../ipopt/configure --with-blas="-framework vecLib" \
     --with-lapack="-framework vecLib" F77=gfortran \
     FFLAGS="-fexceptions -m64 -fbackslash" \
     CFLAGS="-fno-common -no-cpp-precomp -arch x86_64 -m64" \
     CXXFLAGS="-fno-common -no-cpp-precomp -fexceptions -arch x86_64 -m64" \
     -disable-shared CC=gcc-4.0 CXX=g++-4.0
