	 ALLOCATE( q, SIZE( PtEl ) );

Aha!

Try the following:

	 ALLOCATE(q, SIZE(Element));
			  ^^^^^^^

I made this change and got the program to work just fine, both in its
original form and with the changes you described.

*Without* this fix, the program completely hung up my Mac. On breaking
into MacsBug, it told me that the application heap had suffered major
damage. No wonder...

By the way, I use the MPW version of the Metrowerks compiler. I've only
been using it for about four months, but so far it looks like the most
bug-free of the various Mac compilers I've used.
