Resolved
Summary:
Slash character terminates BIRCH environment variable
Original submission:
By default, GetBirch sets the path for BIRCH to

$HOME/BIRCH

However, if you try to install in a different directory, and delete the 'BIRCH' string, the $BIRCH envrionment variable will terminate with a '/'. This is a serious bug, since it will create paths with two slashes eg.

/home/sullivan/BIRCH1//lib-linux-intel

whick would cause important files not to be found.

Probably the best solution, which would circumvent the problem in GetBirch, is to modify scripts so that they eliminate terminal / from $BIRCH.
