Using gfortran 4.1.2 20060705 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)
and GNU Fortran 95 (GCC) 4.2.0 20060822 (experimental)
it compiles and gives the output (from the program):

 det for matrices bigger than 4x4 not implemented

John Chodera, I would really recommend to update to 4.1.x or to 4.2-snapshots
as gfortran in GCC 4.0.x is rather buggy. See
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries for binary GCC versions.

In addition: As the NAG compiler points out:
---------------------------------------------------
Error: Explicit interface required for DET from MAIN - argument A (no. 1) is an
assumed-shape array
---------------------------------------------------

The problem is that Fortran passes an array differently for A(*) or A(n) than
for A(:). The latter is called assumed-shaped array and is an addition to
Fortran 90 (the former also work with Fortran 77). In order to let the compiler
know that you want to pass an assumed-shaped array, you need to either create a
module, which contains the function "det", or you put it below "contains" in
the "program" section or you write an interface in the "program" section.
