I think it would be a good idea to include the documentation  
updates Craig sent in just after the release of 1.1 ;-) and Dave's  
"some g77 doc'toring".

Furthermore, the "recursive I/O bug" patch (whichever was approved  
by Craig) should go into libf2c (Note that I still see test suite  
output coming in with a failure in io0.f, which tests this - did the  
patch really go into the mainline ?).

Other open bug reports _against the release_:

On the 7th of September Marc Dejardin <Marc.Dejardin@cern.ch>  
posted a report on an "internal error--insn does not satisfy its  
constraints" when compiling a routine from CERNLIB on a powerpc  
based machine.

Looks like a powerpc backend problem.

HTH,
Toon.
