I would appreciate if runtimes like libg2c0 are left, if possible. I have a bunch of ancient fortran programs that are too noisy when compiled with gfortran and even trigger errors that were not present with g77. I admit I should carefully look at those programs and fix things in my whole toolchain (programs and libs), but that is not something I will do in the short term, because of time constraints. I guess the same thing may be true for more people. Cheers, -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
