Hello,
I downloaded your new release yesterday and tried to compile vasp on our cluster and got the follwoing error.

/usr/lib/cc -P -DNGZhalf -Dkind8 -DMPI -DCACHE_SIZE=4000 - pro_loop lbfgs.F ; mv lbfgs.i lbfgs.f
f90 -freeform -nocpp -mips4 -64 -O2 -c lbfgs.f
/usr/lib/cc -P -DNGZhalf -Dkind8 -DMPI -DCACHE_SIZE=4000 -Dpro_loop bfgs.F ; mv bfgs.i bfgs.f
cfe: Error: bfgs.F: 170: Unterminated string or character constant

Ah, I've seen this before. Try removing the apostrophe from line 170 in bgfs.F90. This is a comment line, but some compilers or preprocessors get confused because there is no closing '. We'll change this line in our next update.
