the sgi compilers are occasionally optimizing too aggressively.
there is/was a known problem with the file wrener.F, which may be
related to the error you are seeing. please try to recompile wrener.o
without optimization (-O0). if that does not help, you could help
narrowing down the problem by recompiling everything with lower 
optimization (-O2/-O1/-O0). 

also, does the error go away, if you don't compute the stress tensor?
... or change the type of pseudopotential?

hope this helps,
