Since these are private functions I thought I could work around the problem by renaming one of them in our Fortran 95 interface, but it turns out there is at least one other pair of function names (plcontour_2_all and plcontour_tr_all) which clash with each other in our Fortran 95 interface, and probably more. (It is labourous to find these pairs because you have to eliminate functions one by one from the original until you find a pair that cause the issue. There are something like 25 different functions involved so there are a lot of different combinations.) Clint, I need advice on not only how and where to report this bug, but even what to call it. It is not a name clash since the names are obviously distinct, but it must be a clash in how these different pairs of names are represented. My best guess is MinGW gfortran hashes the names when reading in the module file (that is when the error occurs, because I can avoid the error altogether if I drop the "use plplotp" statement in simple.f90), and that hash is very poorly implemented in Wine, but there may be other possibilities.
