Do be careful with that - this from Donnie Berkholz' blog: |

"The entrance of GCC 4.1 into testing has made a lot possible, but also |
35 |
requires a lot of fixing. This is particularly the case in scientific |
36 |
computing, where there's an entirely new Fortran compiler -- gfortran. |
37 |
Please note that gfortran is NOT a renamed g77. It accepts different |
38 |
options, and it compiles different code. Only gfortran will compile |
39 |
Fortran90 and Fortran95 code. Only g77 will accept common options such |
40 |
as -fno-globals. Do not assume they are the same." |
