We, SRA's Wingnut project have added the support for HITACHI's SR2201
to gdb-4.17. Which includes HITACHI's FORTRAN77 compiler support.
Although not tested for output from g77, it may help you.

This patch is available at

ftp://ftp.sra.co.jp/pub/gnu/wingnut/hiuxmpp/gdb-4.17/gdb-4.17.hmpp.diff-980729.

Here is the README file:
===========================================================================
his directory contains the patch to gdb-4.17 which support
        HITACHI SR2201 - PA-RISC based MPP machine,
        HI-UX/MPP base OSF/1.

This patch support HITACHI's FORTRAN77 compiler support as well as
basic C(and C++) supports.
This FORTRAN77 support includes
some modifications to GDB's FORTRAN77 frontend and
some enhancement to HP's DEBUG information(HI-UX/MPP use it) support.
This patch includes also about 1000 FORTRAN77 test cases merged to
gdb-4.17's testsuite.
