Re: g77: missing intrinsic atan2d

Since these functions (presumably taking arguments in degrees) aren't in any
Fortran standard, and aren't usually included in Fortran libraries, they
probably aren't on a priority list.  I don't recall seeing them on g77.plan,
which gives some indication of Craig's priorities.  I myself would put
inclusion of more standard Fortran functions and possibly improved support for
common platforms as a higher priority.  The degree functions, of course, are
almost trivial and most applications have built-in equivalents using standard
Fortran without any ill effects.
