new test will hang 'make check-g77'

This isn't going to be popular, but it should be motivational. :-)
The new testcase
g77.f-torture/execute/980310-5.f
will hang forever when compiled with -O2 or higher, as a 'make check'
will do by default. It will consume mass quantities of clock cycles and
generally screw up your automated build and test processes. I have
verified this behaviour on the current egcs on i586-pc-sco3.2v5.0.4, but
the original report was under Linux.
If this causes enough grief during testing and is deemed benign enough
by the wizards, perhaps we can set it to xfail as we did for the recent
961203 tests.
