Great !  Now if you could install Richard Henderson's patch:

Thu Mar 12 09:53:14 1998  Richard Henderson  <rth@cygnus.com>

	* com.c (ffecom_expr_): Revert Oct 22 change.  Instead take  
a WIDENP
	argument so that we can respect the signedness of the  
original type.
	(ffecom_init_0): Do sizetype initialization first.  Init new
	ssizetype.

then all the current Fortran problems would be solved :-)

I have tried this patch on both an Alpha (solves the problem it was  
meant to solve and runs at least one other program correctly) and  
my m68k-next-nextstep3 system - just to check whether those changes  
wouldn't accidentally break a previously working combination.
