Yes, but on the integer side, you're kinda screwed.
Thanks for the info. I was asking so that I can keep pathf90
compatible with where g77/gfortran is going.
As a second question, are you guys going to abandon the f2c calling
convention? See the g77 info pages for a description of -fno-f2c to
see what I mean. We decided to follow the AMD64 ABI and use a flag for
back-compatibility for individual functions. It's unfortunate that
this ancient ABI is used on even new platforms with g77.
