In view of the much improved support given gfortran, and lack of same in
recent years for g77, I have requested my employer to consider changing
the current assumption that g77 is the common denominator Fortran for
linux. Not only that, but gfortran inter-operates better with the other
software products we require. Evidently, I don't speak for those to
whom I have made the request.
I did something comparable: Given that the upcoming Debian distribution
(I never can remember its nickname) supports gcc-4.1 (including
gfortran-4.1) I requested from the HDF help-desk when they think they
support gfortran (because the HDF library default in the Debian testing
environment still is compiled with g77).
Their answer was: Spring 2007.
