Large file suppport in g77?

[Giacomo Mulas <gmulas at ca dot astro dot it>]

	Hello, I have to handle files larger than 2Gbytes on an x86
computer running Linux. The current test kernels (v2.4.0-test) do support
the Large File Summit (LFS) on x86, as does the current 2.1.3 version of
glibc. To enable LFS support one has to compile the library on a computer
running such a kernel, and afterwards define some macro symbols in the C
program to be compiled (as documented in glibc docs). I have tested this
and it works well, apparently.
	However, it seems to only work with C programs, and I also have to
compile some Fortran code. How can I get g77 to use the LFS
extensions? Would somebody even just point me to some document, HOWTO, FAQ
or web page in which this is explained? 

Thanks
Giacomo Mulas
