Hi David,

Now, a week after the discussion, what do you think about my proposal
of the "g77" link under /usr/bin? IMHO, the following facts are all good
reasons for creating the link:

  - the output of "f77 -V", "f77 --version", "man f77", and "info g77";
  - our Fortran compiler _is_ GNU Fortran, i.e., g77;
  - there are configure scripts which [legitimately] look for g77 when
    instructed to use the GNU Fortran compiler;
  - we already have a "gcc" link.

I understand (and agree) your arguments against Gfoo, but I think that
the benefits of the g77 link are worth the "sacrifice" (gsacrifice?) :-)

Regards,
-- JMA
