Subject: Re: g77 error - msg#00117

We should add these fixes to our autoconf packages and ALL broken fortran packages. It is legitimate to file bugs on all of them, since they do not work and it is fixable.

This is an error I have gotten with either g77 3.1 or 3.3 if you upgrade to the developer tools patch that installs gcc 3.3. The only way I was able to get rid of this problem was to reinstall the December 2002 edition of the developer tools. Merely switching back to gcc 3.1 did not get rid of this problem. I tried reporting it before but ...

A slightly longer way ... :

1) in autoconf2.5, add the line

PatchScript: sed -i -r 's|^(\ *)(end]\))|\1call\ exit\n\1\2|g' lib/autoconf/fortran.m4

(and do a similar patch for extutils-f77 for a couple of perl-modules :
in F77.pm, add a line

print OUT " call exit\n";
right after the line :
print OUT " print *, 'Hello World'\n";
)

2) After rebuilding those 2, the configure stage in other builds should proceed normally,
provided you add, if necessary, in a PatchScript to run autoconf (or autoreconf (-f)) ,
and, if necessary, fix, before running autoconf, the .m4 files in the builddir. Thus, eg,

PatchScript: <<
sed -i -r 's|^(\ *)end$|\1call\ exit\n\1end|g' *.m4 m4/R.m4
autoconf
<<

3) As to the make proper, the following line is safe to add in the PatchScript, and will as far
as I know correct the problems in the sources :

egrep -r '^\ *(STOP|stop)$' *|grep '\.f:'|cut -f1 -d':'|xargs sed -i -r 's,^\ *(STOP|stop)$,&\ 999,g'

Best,
