Code compilation

Shared object portability issue. In Generator/GNUmakefile, define a new variable CMCLIBNAME, just above the existing CMCLIB definition:

CMCLIBNAME := libcmc.so
CMCLIB := $(CMCDIR)/libcmc.so

and then the target:

Generator: $(CMCLIB)

$(CMCLIB): $(OBJF) $(OBJC) $(COMMONOBJ) $(OBJCC)
       $(FC) -shared -Wl,-soname,$(CMCLIBNAME) -o $(CMCLIB) $^

This way the .so is linked w/o the full path, which ensures portability of the executable. Same trick in Beam/GNUmakefile, but variable names BEAMLIBNAME and BEAMLIB.
