Package: binfmtc
Version: 0.16-1

It had Fortran 95 support for a while, but now it has gone.

The problem with the magic "c BINFMTF:" is that 'c' is not in the
Old Fortran character set
"+-0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQR/STUVWXYZ='.)$*,( ",
but neither is ':' or the compiler options. Porting back to the
Old Fortran character set would be unlikely anyway.

The interpreter looks for g77 which is no longer available.
You may as well get rid of "c BINFMTF:" and support for g77.

In Old Fortran you could use '*' or 'C' in first column for a comment.

In Fortran 95 comments start with '!'.

In my earlier patch I recommended the magic "! BINFMTF95:" and the
interpreter used gfortran.

You could use the shorter "! BINFMTF:" if it is not being reserved for
g95 -std=F use.
