Paul said he didn't have one of the fortran intrinsic functions, I assume that's why he's trying to build g77. I can't help with the build either, but I can make a suggestion. If your users are going to be doing any serious fortran development get a commercial Fortran compiler like the one from AbSoft or Portland Group. g77 is a great idea, but I think it's still got a ways to go, and even when it's finished I don't think they'll support any of the legacy, non-standard fortran extensions that are common in older fortran code. Even if you got g77 to build from source you'd probably be disappointed when it didn't solve the missing function problem. Gary
