Are you aware of the fact that g77 *is completely* broken with
respect to the gcc-4.x branch?  There is no one who is going to
fix the problem because the effort to fix g77 is estimated to 
be equilavent to implementing an actually F95 compiler.

I don't use linux.  Never have, never will.  I use FreeBSD on an
AMD64 platform where there are no commercially available F95 compilers.
I have zero compiler writing experience, yet you'll find that I've
contributed 69 patches to make gfortran work.  Those patches came
about because I need a compiler, and I decided to contribute something
to GCC other than whining and making disparaging remarks.  I don't
know about my fellow contributors, but I find that I have little
motivation to continue to work on gfortran occur when indivudals
come here to tell us that gfortran is useless.
