Bug in fortran compiler on Alpha

egcs 1.1 was recently released, and might well fix the problem you're
running into.

(BTW, it does look like you're running g77 indeed.  egcs 1.0.x are
the only versions that don't report a ton of info for `f77 -v' or
`g77 -v', which throws some long-time g77 users off a bit; egcs 1.1
restores this behavior.)
