------- Additional Comments From alfredo dot ferrari at cern dot ch 2005-03-29 12:34 ------- Hi, any news on this bug? I really appreciate the effort to build a free fortran95 compiler: the need for this is really strongly felt in our community. However, without working ENTRY's, gfortran is going to be of little use for the vast majority of the fortran particle physics and mathematics code we are using here at CERN and probably around the world. As ugly as it is (and I can assure that often it was the nicest way rather than the ugliest one of doing things) ENTRY is part of the standard and most fortran codes (at least in particle physics) make often use of it in endless places. This is true both for legacy codes where putting hands would be highly problematic, and for codes still in active development. I am afraid I can be of little help in providing patches/improvements since I am a physicist with no experience in compiler writing and/or assembler. However I have a long experience in finding bugs, reporting them and helping in assessing possible solutions, dating back to the old time of VMS machines. Please don't let us down, we fought a lot to have Linux as primary platform for physics calculations, and we want to be able to demonstrate that is was and it will be a viable and stable solution.
