------- Additional Comments From jblomqvi at cc dot hut dot fi 2005-05-24 20:02 ------- Well no, the standard does not specify how unformatted sequential record markers are implemented. In short, gfortran uses markers of type off_t, which is 64 bits on operating systems with large file (LFS) support. Today, that is most OS:es in common use. g77 AFAIK uses markers of type long, that is 32-bits on most 32-bit platforms and 64 bits on 64-bit platforms. See also PR 19303. Also note that Bud Davis is apparently currently working on pluggable record markers, which should allow gfortran to add some kind of g77 compatibility flag.
