Description Martin 2007-02-23 23:23:33 UTC 
The compiler encouraged me to write this bugreport.

My gcc-Version:
martin@martin:~$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)

My f77-Version:
martin@martin:~$ g77 --version
GNU Fortran (GCC) 3.4.6 (Ubuntu 3.4.6-1ubuntu2)
Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

The bug itself:
While make(ing) GNU Octave 2.9.9 the following occured:

g77 -c -fPIC -O -mieee-fp dorgbr.f -o pic/dorgbr.o
*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0x084f0290 ***
In file included from dorgbr.f:0:
dorgbr.f:245: interner Compiler-Fehler: Aborted
Please submit a full bug report,...

This bug isn't reproducable. Compiling again works.

This crash is with g77, which is no longer support.

> This crash is with g77, which is no longer support.

To elaborate more: The GCC 4.x series comes with the compiler "gfortran" which can compile Fortran 77/90/95 (and some Fortran 2003) programs. It should also be available under Ubuntu (as you have gcc 4.0.3). However, the GCC/gfortran 4.0.x version is a bit buggy thus you should therefore better install gfortran 4.1 (or 4.2.x or 4.3.x).

gfortran binaries are available from:
