There is a g77-compat package you can yum install that loads the old g77 
libraries so that yo may run previously compiled code.

However, gfortran will compile your code, if you have the original sources.  You 
simply have to recompile so tha the applications use the gfortran libarries 
rather than the g77 ones.

Let me know if you are stuck.
