port3 under g77


Hello,
   In recompiling the port3 math library from Lucent
under g77 I noticed one set of tests failed (at least
under gcc 3.0.1 on sgi). The failing test is p3tests/errk.f
and the authors say in their readme...

The errk test might fail on some systems that offer IEEE-format
floating-point arithmetic, but do not properly support denormalized
numbers.  On such systems, just say "touch p3tests/machtest; make" to
continue compiling the PORT3 library.

Perhaps the g77 maintainers may want to download the port3
library and look at the errk.f test to see if we can possibly
come into complience with it. The port3 fortran library source
can be downloaded from...

Thanks in advance for looking into this issue.
                  Jack
ps Compared to the values which they have for sgi compilers
g77 3.0.1 gives a diff as follows
