I've often wondered whether Schwern's assertion that MakeMaker would always
be broken was a simple statement of fact, or an expression of his goal :-)

F77.pm currently specifies:
$F77config{Darwin}{GFortran}{Cflags} = ' '; # <---need this space!
Could it be that just needs changing to
$F77config{Darwin}{GFortran}{Cflags} =
<running_in_64bit_mode> ? ' -m64' : ' ';
I don't know how you determine whether you're "running_in_64bit_mode". I
would think there's a Config value somewhere that tells you . Does
$Config{archname} contain a tell-tale symbol ? (It does on MS Windows.)
Cheers,
