I do not know anything about valgrind, but the Fortran code is perfectly 
OK.  It uses an automatic array x in subroutine fsub that is dimensioned 
using the dummy argument i, which is an extension of Fortran 77, but 
allowed in Fortran 90 and supported by g77.

I tried your code using g77-3.3.4 as supplied by Debian on their testing 
platform (up-to-date as of Sunday 1/8/2004) and it performs perfectly.

I'm afraid someone else has to help you here (that's why I changed the 
subject).

Cheers,
