This problem was reported by Frank

porting SE support via a run_star_extra to the last public release, r10398,
was not too difficult. just a few minor changes to the makefile_header.

i'm running a 12msun model.

porting SE support via a run_star_extra to the last public release, r10398,
was not too difficult. just a few minor changes to the makefile_header.

however, a non-trivial issue has arisen.

with SE support in a run_star_extra, a job cannot be restarted.
that is, any

% ./re photo

crashes immediately with the bizarre error:
"PGSTAR Kipp failed to find star_mass in history data".
the LOGS/history.data file has star_mass as one of its columns.

replace the SE run_star_extra with a non-SE run_star_extra
and a restart happens normally, including the pgstar kipp.

this is a repeatable error on my 12msun model.

my sense is that some sort of memory stomping is going on
that is triggered by a restart but not a run, and the memory
stomp gives rise to a silly error message.

for now, i have turned off SE support as one goal is just
to get a 12msun to core-collapse with a large-ish network.
