I'm trying to send an array of integers to an SGI Onyx, but it is only
receiving the first 1013 integers.  I tried using both send and psend
and recv and precv, and get the same results: the receiver buffer only
contains the first 1013 integers. 
 
This happens when I try to send data from an IBM RS/6000 or from a Sun
SparcStation to the onyx.  

Sending from the onyx to the onyx works ok.
Sending from the RS/6000 to the Sun (and visa-versa) works ok.
Sending from the onyx to the RS/6000 or the Sun works ok.

It's only when I try to send from another architecture to the onyx
that it dies.  i.e. the onyx isn't receiving long arrays correctly.

Any ideas?  The code is in FORTRAN, and I'm running PVM 3.3.3.
