g77 has not been maintained for many a year now and it is indeed the only popular FORTRAN 77-only compiler still in wide enough use. I would like to distinguish the single versus double underscore issue for internal routine names, as I am not at all sure that that scheme is not used by some other compilers. Therefore: let us proceed with such a soft landing as Alan describes.
