Since the broken assembler in the Dec2002 Dev Tools update seems only

affect g77, I propose to implement this fix:
1) create an "as" package, which builds an assembler from opendarwin
cvs
(that actually works with g77). This is installed as %p/bin/odas.
2) update the g77 package to depend on as, and configure with
"--with-as=%p/bin/odas"
Seems perfect to me.

PS:
This seems better to me than adding patches that replace "STOP"
with "CALL EXIT" in all affected fortran codes. Comments?
My suggested patch was a bit more careful than that with the code :
it replaced naked STOP statements by "STOP 999", and put a "CALL EXIT"
only in programs that ended just with 'END' ...
Still your proposal is of course better
