           Summary: gfortran does not compile .f (f77) fortran files
           Product: gcc
           Version: tree-ssa
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: fortran
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: wcohen at redhat dot com
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
 GCC build triplet: ia64-redhat-linux
GCC target triplet: ia64-redhat-linux

When one tries to compile a f77 program with a .f extension the gfortran returns
an error messages along the lines of the following:

gfortran: dcabs1.f: Fortran compiler not installed on this system

This problem appears to occur with any file with .f and is inpendent of the
host/target triplets.
