Ok- this issue i had seen earlier. This has two possible reasons: 

1) This comes from the latest pgi compiler version. Which version you are using
? Its works with 6.05 and below and gives this error with 6.12 version. I didn't
fix it for latest version. You may try using IFC or older pgi version. I will
check this issue of new pgi version.

2) You are low in disk space. 

BTW, You may communicate personally.
